Welcome

Hello everyone.
It is my expectation that in this course we will explore some of the underlying issues and concerns relevant to using literature with the language learner. I hope some of the thoughts and ideas from our discourse will help us in making more principled and coherent classroom decisions about why and how to use literature in language lessons. Every literary text is different and every theory exploring literature itself or how to use it in the classroom is different. My task is thus to draw on the range of insights discussed and presented through this blog and this course to develop an approach appropraiate and relevant to students.
