We have done the course of EDU3217 Teaching the language of drama with Dr. Edwin last semester and TODAY with the same lecturer, we are introduced to another TESL course, EDU3234, which is entitled "Readings and Project Work for Teaching Literature". So, HELLO EDU 3234, and GOODBYE EDU3217.
As far as I know about the course, all of us need to do a brief research paper regarding at least two literary texts that we have learned throughout TESL courses and also a position paper. That's a real big concern of mine!
Our Iranian tutor for this course, Omid was introduced to us on our first meeting with Dr. Edwin. I don't know how would it be to have the tutorial class with him. I just hope that I can understand the language came from him for I am not really a good listeners.*Sigh!!*
The first meeting with Dr. Edwin was an introduction about the course and things that we would do for this course. As usual, the e-forum is still an assessment for all of us. (I actually like it as I thought I wouldn't) However, there is basically no examination for this course and the evaluation is mostly depends on the position paper and research paper.
In fact, I was wondering about the texts to be chosen for the position papers so I decided to start out by revising all the listed texts. For now, I have chosen "Barn Burning"by William Faulkner to be my topic of research paper. As for the position paper, I will have to discuss with Mr Omid whether he will provide a list of choices or we can choose the topic our own. So, right now I just start out with revising the texts and list down the problems or the issues discussed in the texts.
