The students will also be exposed to the three models and three approaches in the teaching of literature. The three models are: (1) the cultural model, (2) the language model and (3) the personal growth model. The three approaches are: (1) the information-based approach, (2) the language-based approach and (3) the personal response-based approach. Knowledge of these models and approaches will be used when students design teaching and learning tasks/activities and write lesson plans and conduct micro and/or macro teaching lessons based on the current list of LIE texts.
