Before reading the texts below, please take your time and put down your idea of

- why we should read literature in school

- how it should be taught or read in school and

- what you consider good literature education.

Just take about ten minutes to think about this and take down some notes. You do not need to write a whole text.

Please send your notes to soeren.koopmann@uni-oldenburg.de

Incoming notes will be organised in an anonymised list for discussion next week.

Questions for discussing these two articles:

  1. What claims do the authors make about literature?
  2. What do they say about the current practice of teaching literature?
  3. What do they say about how literature should be taught?
  4. What roles do factors such as race/class/gender play in their views?
