Intended for current and future foreign language teaching professionals, volumes in the Theory and Practice in Second Language Classroom Instruction series examine issues in teaching and learning in language classrooms. The topics selected and the discussions of them draw in principled ways on theory and practice in a range of fields, including second language acquisition, foreign language education, educational policy, language policy, linguistics, and other areas of applied linguistics. Teaching Literature in the Languages delves into the various aspects of teaching literature successfully from planning to engaging students. Teaching Literature in the Languages explores teaching literature from all angles. Unit 1 focuses on the importance of literature in a language classroom along with expectations of teachers and students. Unit 2 delves into the best practices for engaging learners in the classroom. It includes terms of engagement in the literature classroom, how to equip students to read literature, and how to conduct a class. Unit 3 provides structures and evaluation for literature in the language curriculum along with preparation and support strategies for literature teachers. The appendix includes sample syllabi, assignment sheets, course handouts and exam questions. - Publisher.
In Teaching Literature in the Languages, Professor Nance focuses on two fundamental questions. How can teachers enable and encourage more language students to read literature today? What can teachers do to increase the likelihood that more language students will become lifelong readers of literature? "Students need to read for themselves, think critically about what they read, and then express and develop their responses through discussion and writing. For a number of reasons literature teachers have not always been successful at engaging all students in those endeavors, a situation that has drawn fair questions about the role of literature in language curricula. Literature teachers in the languages must find ways to extend engagement with literature -- and the benefits it confers -- to all of our students." - Back cover.
