Using Literature in English Language Education: Challenging Reading for 8–18 Year Olds de Dr Janice Bland

Using Literature in English Language Education: Challenging Reading for 8–18 Year Olds: Bloomsbury Guidebooks for Language Teachers

Editat de Dr Janice Bland
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 aug 2018
Covering Green's The Fault in Our Stars, Collins' The Hunger Games, Selznick's The Invention of Hugo Cabret, Rowling's Wizarding World, Staake's Bluebird and Winton's Lockie Leonard, contributors consider how literature can be used for teaching literary literacy, creative writing, intercultural learning, critical pedagogy and deep reading in school settings where English is the teaching medium. Leading scholars from around the world explore pedagogical principles for English Language Teaching (ELT) widening children's and teenagers' literacy competences as well as their horizons through insightful engagement with texts. From challenging picturebooks for primary and secondary students, to graphic novels, to story apps, film and drama, as well as speculative fiction on provocative topics, recent research on literature education in ELT settings combines with cognitive criticism in the field of children's, young adult and adult literature.

Recenzii

This book introduces a framework for thinking differently about texts in ELT, encouraging practitioners to move away from simplified literature (or graded readers), and raises important questions about what counts as a complex or generative text, and to whom, and for what purposes. Bland's edited volume is . an important body of work that reframes the goals for, and methodologies of, English language teaching.
[This book] provides comprehensive, in-depth and state-of-the-art insights to literature learning in ELT contexts ... [It] is a worthy contribution to theory as well as methodology and offers many innovative teaching methods, which teachers and lecturers may well want to try out in class.
Delivers a methodical, finely structured, and elaborate argument not only for how and why the use of literature in language education is challenging but also how and why the challenge could and should be met ... Through a combination of theory and practical suggestions at the end of each chapter, the volume supports its argument with great success ... An inspiring read.
An essential and timely contribution both to ELT and children's literature studies. This edited collection brings together essays revealing the broad range of theoretical and methodological work in both fields in an accessible and engaging manner. It is a 'must have' for scholars and educators in the area of language teaching.
A highly stimulating collection, full of insightful theoretical perspectives that are closely linked to practical teaching examples. The content is richly varied, but all the chapters have a common goal of bringing innovative ideas, depth and criticality to the EFL classroom.
Brings together international experts who show us how CYAL can best be integrated in ELT classrooms so that learners can make deep and meaningful connections between life and literature and can be prepared for future reading challenges.
Bland's highly stimulating and very readable collection of articles clearly demonstrates the great opportunity to pursue up-to-date curricular and pedagogical objectives through challenging reading...A book that is not to be missed!
