OVERVIEW

Literature plays a vital role to students in the classroom. It provides multiple


opportunities and experiences for them to grow. Literature pertains to the ideas, feelings,
expressions, emotions, and thoughts in black and white. It really helps develop the language
skills of students in speaking, writing, reading, critical reasoning, appreciating of texts,
valuing education and other abilities and qualities that contribute to the substantial
enhancement and development of students. In every successful lesson and application of
literature is always taught by the teachers who have the goals to achieve and that is
learning. Teachers apply different methods, strategies, approaches and procedures or
choose effective and appropriate pathways in their teaching and assessment. It is very
useful to use certain of these in any form of literature in enabling students to improve their

known as N.V.M. Gonzalez, fictionist, essayist,
poet, and teacher, articulated the Filipino spirit in
rural, urban landscapes. Among the many
recognitions, he won the First Commonwealth
Literary Contest in 1940, received the Republic
Cultural Heritage Award in 1960 and the Gawad
CCP Para sa Sining in 1990. The awards attest to
his triumph in appropriating the English language
to express, reflect and shape Philippine culture and Philippine sensibility. He became
U.P.’s |nternational-Writer-In-Residence and a member of the Board of Advisers of the
U.P. Creative Writing Center. In 1987, U.P. conferred on him the Doctor of Humane

4. Virgilio S. Almario, also known as Rio


Alma, is a poet, literary historian and critic, who
has revived and reinvented traditional Filipino
poetic forms, even as he championed modernist
poetics. In 34 years, he has published 12 books of
poetry, which include the seminal Makinasyon and
Peregrinasyon, and the landmark trilogy
Doktrinang Anakpawis, Mga Retrato at Rekwerdo
and Muli, Sa Kandungan ng Lupa. In these works,
his poetic voice soared from the lyrical to the
satirical to the epic, from the dramatic to the incantatory, in his often severe
examination of the self, and the society.

He has also redefined how the Filipino poetry is viewed and paved the way for the
discussion of the same in his 10 books of criticisms and anthologies, among which are
Ang Makata sa Panahon ng Makina, Balagtasismo versus Modernismo,Walong Dekada
ng Makabagong Tula Pilipino, Mutyang Dilim and Barlaan at Josaphat

Many Filipino writers have come under his wing in the literary workshops he
founded —the Galian sa Arte at Tula (GAT) and the Linangan sa Imahen, Retorika at
Anyo (LIRA). He has also long been involved with children's literature through the Aklat
Adarna series, published by his Children‘s Communication Center. He has been a constant

presence aswell in national writing workshops and galvanizes member writers as chairman
emeritus of the Unyon ng mga Manunulat sa Pilipinas (UMPIL).

He headed the National Commission for Culture and the Arts as Executive
Director, (from 1998 to 2001) ably steering the Commission towards its goals. But more
than anything else, what Almario accomplished was that he put a face to the Filipino
writer in the country, one strong face determinedly wielding a pen into untruths,
hypocrisy, injustice, among others.

5. Cirilo F. Bautista is a poet, fictionist


and essayist with exceptional achievements and
significant contributions to the development of
the country's literary arts. He is acknowledged
by peers and critics, and the nation at large as
the foremost writer of his generation.

Throughout his career that spans more


than four decades, he has established a
reputation for fine and profound artistry; his
books, lectures, poetry readings and creative writing workshops continue to influence
his peers and generations of young writers.

As a way of bringing poetry and fiction closer to the people who otherwise would
not have the opportunity to develop their creative talent, Bautista has been holding
regular funded and unfunded workshops throughout the country. In his campus lecture
circuits, Bautista has updated students and student—writers on literary developments
and techniques.

As a teacher of literature, Bautista has realized that the classroom is an


important training ground for Filipino writers. In De La Salle University, he was
instrumental in the formation of the Bienvenido Santos Creative Writing Center. He was
also the moving spirit behind the founding of the Philippine Literary Arts Council in 1981,
the Iligan National Writers Workshop in 1993, and the Baguio Writers Group.

Thus, Bautista continues to contribute to the development of Philippine


literature: as a writer, through his significant body of works; as a teacher, through his
discovery and encouragement of young writers in workshops and lectures; and as a critic,
through his essays that provide insights into the craft of writing and correctives to
misconceptions about art.
Major works: Summer Suns (1963), Words and Battlefields (1998), The Trilogy
of Saint Lazarus (2001), Galaw ng Asoge (2003).

6. Nick Joaquin, is regarded by many as


the most distinguished Filipino writer in English
writing so variedly and so we l about so many
aspects of the Filipino. Nick Joaquin has also
enriched the English language with critics coining
“Joaquinesque" to describe his baroque Spanish-
flavored English or his reinventions of English
based on Filipinisms. Aside from his handling of
language, Bienvenido Lumbera writes that Nick
Joaquin’s significance in Philippine literature
involves his exploration of the Philippine colonial
past under Spain and his probing into the psychology of socia changes as seen by the
young, as exemplified in stories such as Dona Jeronima, Candido's Apocalypse and The
Order of Melchizedek. Nick Joaquin has written plays, novels, poems, short stories and
essays including reportage and journalism.

As a journalist, Nick Joaquin uses the nome de guerre Quijano de Manila but
whether he is writing literature or journalism, fellow National Artist Francisco Arcellana
opines that “it is always of the highest skill and quality.’’

Among his voluminous works are The Woman Who Had Two Navels, A Portrait
of the Artist as Filipino, Manila, My Manila: A History for the Young, The Ballad
of the Five Battles, Rizal in Saga, Almanac for Manilefios, Cave and Shadows. Nick
Joaquin died on April 29, 2004.

7. F. Sionil Jose's writings since the late


60s, when taken collectively can best be
described as epic. Its sheer volume puts him on
the forefront of Philippine writing in English. But
ultimately, it is the consistent espousal of the
aspirations of the Filipino—for national
sovereignty and social justice—that guarantees
the value of his oeuvre.

In the five—novel masterpiece, the


Rosales saga, consisting of The Pretenders,
Tree, My Brother, My Executioner, Mass, and Po-on, he captures the sweep of
Philippine history while simultaneously narrating the lives of generations of the Samsons
whose personal lives intertwine with the social struggles of the nation. Because of their
international appeal, his works, including his many short stories, have been published and
translated into various languages.

F. Sionil Jose is also a publisher, lecturer on cultural issues, and the founder of
the Philippine chapter of the international organization PEN. He was bestowed the CCP
Centennial Honors for the Arts in 1999; the Outstanding Fulbrighters Award for
Literature in 1988; and the Ramon Magsaysay Award for Journalism, Literature, and
Creative Communication Arts in 1980.

8. Amado V. Hernandez, poet, playwright,


and novelist, is among the Filipino writers who
practiced “committed art”. In his view, the function
of the writer is to act as the conscience of society
and to affirm the greatness of the human spirit in
the face of inequity and oppression. Hernandez’s
contribution to the development of Tagalog prose is
considerable — he stripped Tagalog of its ornate
character and wrote in prose closer to the colloquial than the “official” style permitted.
His novel Mga lbong Mandaragit, first written by Hernandez while in prison, is the first
Filipino socio-political novel that exposes the ills of the society as evident in the
agrarian problems of the 50s.

Hernandez's other works include Bayang Malaya, Isang Dipang Langit, Luha ng
Buwaya, Amado V. Hernandez: Tudla at Tudling: Katipunan ng mga Nalathalang Tula
1921-1970, Langaw sa Isang Basong Gatas at Iba Pang Kuwento ni Amado V.
Hernandez, Magkabilang Mukha ng Isang Bagol at Iba Pang Akda ni Amado V.
Hernandez.

9. Lazaro A. Francisco, prize-winning


writer developed the social realist tradition in
Philippine fiction. His eleven novels, now
acknowledged classics of Philippine literature,
embodies the author's commitment to
nationalism. Amadis Ma. Guerrero wrote,
“Francisco championed the cause of the common
man, specifically the oppressed peasants. His
novels exposed the evils of the tenancy system,
the exploitation of farmers by unscrupulous landlords, and foreign domination." Teodoro
Valencia also observed His pen dignifies the Filipino and accents all the positives about
the Filipino way of life. His writings have contributed much to the formation of a Filipino
nationalism." Literary historian and critic Bienvenido Lumbera also wrote, “When the

history of the Filipino novel is written, Francisco is likely to occupy an eminent place in
it. Already in Tagalog literature, he ranks among the finest novelists since the beginning
of the 20th century. In addition to a deft hand at characterization, Francisco has a
supple prose style responsive to the subtlest nuances of ideas and the sternest stuff of
passions."

Francisco gained prominence as a writer not only for his social conscience but also
for his “masterful handling of the Tagalog language" and “supple prose style”. With his
literary output in Tagalog, he contributed to the enrichment of the Filipino language and
literature for which he is a staunch advocate. He put up an arm to his advocacy of
Tagalog as a national language by establishing the Kapatiran ng mga Alagad ng Wikang
Pilipino
(KAWIKA) in 1958.

His reputation as the “Master of the Tagalog Novel” is backed up by numerous


awards he received for his meritorious novels in particular, and for his contribution to
Philippine literature and culture in general. His masterpiece novels—Ama, Bayang
Nagpatiwakal, Maganda Pa Ang Daigdig and Daluyong—affirm his eminent place in
Philippine literature. In 1997, he was honored by the University of the Philippines with a
special convocation, where he was cited as the “foremost Filipino novelist of his
generation” and “champion of the Filipino writer’s struggle for national identity.”

10. Alejandro Roces, is a short story writer


and essayist, and considered as the country's best
writer of comic short stories. He is known for his
widely anthologized “My Brother's Peculiar Chicken."
In his innumerable newspaper columns, he has always
focused on the neglected aspects of the Filipino
cultural heritage. His works have been published in
various international magazines and has received
national and international awards.

Ever the champion of Filipino culture, Roces


brought to public attention the aesthetics of the country's fiestas. He was instrumental
in popularizing several local fiestas, notably, Moriones and Ati-atihan. He personally led
the campaign to change the country's Independence Day from July 4 to June 12, and
caused the change of language from English to Filipino in the country's stamps, currency
and passports, and recovered Jose Rizal’s manuscripts when they were stolen from the
National Archives.

His unflinching love of country led him to become a guerilla during the Second
World War, to defy martial law and to found the major opposition party under the
dictatorship. His works have been published in various international magazines and
received numerous national and international awards, including several decorations from
various governments. He once said “You cannot be a great writer; first, you have to be a
good person".

11. Carlos P. Romulo‘s multifaceted career


spanned 50 years of public service as educator,
soldier, university president, journalist and
diplomat. It is common knowledge that he was the
first Asian President of the United Nations
General Assembly, then Philippine Ambassador to
Washington, D.C., and later minister of foreign
affairs. Essentially though, Romulo was very much
into writing: he was a reporter at 16, a newspaper
editor by the age of 20, and a publisher at 32. He was the only Asian to win America's
coveted Pulitzer Prize in Journalism for a series of articles predicting the outbreak of
World War II. Romulo, in all, wrote and published 18 books, a range of literary works
which included The United (novel), I Walked with Heroes (autobiography), I Saw the
Fall of the Philippines, Mother America, I See the Philippines Rise (war—time
memoirs).

His other books include his memoirs of his many years’ affiliations with United
Nations (UN), Forty Years: A Third World Soldier at the UN, and The Philippine
Presidents, his oral history of his experiences sewing all the Philippine presidents.

12. Jose Garcia Villa is considered as one


of the finest contemporary poets regardless of
race or language. Villa, who lived in Singalong,
Manila, introduced the reversed consonance rime
scheme, including the comma poems that made full
use of the punctuation mark in an innovative,
poetic way. The first of his poems "Have Come,
Am Here" received critical recognition when it
appeared in New York in 1942 that, soon enough,
honors and fellowships were heaped on him: Guggenheim, Bollingen, the American
Academy of Arts and Letters Awards. He used Doveglion (Dove, Eagle, Lion) as penname,
the very characters he attributed to himself, and the same ones explored by e.e.
cummings in the poem he wrote for Villa (Doveglion, Adventures in Value). Villa is also
known for the tartness of his tongue.

13. Rolando S. Tinio, playwright, thespian,


poet, teacher, critic and translator, marked his
career with prolific artistic productions. Tinio‘s
chief distinction is as a stage director whose
original insights into the scripts he handled
brought forth productions notable for their visual
impact and intellectual cogency. Subsequently,
after staging productions for the Ateneo
Experimental Theater (its organizer and
administrator as well), he took on Teatro Pilipino.
It was to Teatro Pilipino which he left a considerable amount of work reviving
traditional Filipino drama by re—staging old theater forms like the sarswela and opening
a treasure— house of contemporary Western drama. It was the excellence and beauty
of his practice that claimed for theater a place among the arts in the Philippines in the
1960s.

Aside from his collections of poetry (Sitsit sa Kuliglig, Dunung - Dunungan,


Kristal na Uniberso, A Trick of Mirrors) among his works were the following: film
scripts for Now and Forever, Gamitin Mo Ako, Bayad Puri and Milagros; sarswelas
Ang Mestisa, Ako, Ang Kiri, Ana Maria; the komedya Orosman at Zafira; and
Larawan, the musical.

14. Francisco Arcellana, writer, poet,


essayist, critic, journalist and teacher, is one of
the most important progenitors of the modern
Filipino short story in English. He pioneered the
development of the short story as a lyrical prose
—poetic form. For Arcellana, the pride of fiction
is "that it is able to render truth, that is able to
present reality". Arcellana kept alive the
experimental tradition in fiction, and had been
most daring in exploring new literary forms to
express the sensibility of the Filipino people. A brilliant craftsman, his works are now an
indispensable part of a tertiary—level—syllabi all over the COUFICIZ. Arcellana‘s

published books are Selected Stories (19 2), Poetry and Politics: The State of

Sampler (1990).

Some of his short stories are Frankie, The Man Who Would Be Poe, Death in a
Factory, Lina, A Clown Remembers, Divided by Two, The Mats, and his poems being
The Other Woman, This Being the Third Poem This Poem is for Mathilda, To Touch
You and I Touched Her, and among others.

15. Levi Celerio is a prolific lyricist and


composer for decades. He effortlessly
translated/wrote anew the lyrics to traditional
melodies: “O Maliwanag Na Buwan" (lloko), “Ako ay
May Singsing" (Pampango), “Alibangbang" (Visaya)
among others. E

Born in Tondo, Celerio received his


scholarship at the Academy of Music in Manila
that made it possible for him to join the Manila
Symphony Orchestra, becoming its youngest member. He made it to the Guinness Book
of World Records as the only person able to make music using just a leaf.

A great number of his songs have been written for the local movies, which earned
for him the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Film Academy of the Philippines. Levi
Celerio, more importantly, has enriched the Philippine music for no less than two
generations with a treasury of more than 4,000 songs in an idiom that has proven to
appeal to all social classes.

16. Carlos Quirino, biographer, has the


distinction of having written one of the earliest
biographies of Jose Rizal titled The Great Malayan.
Quirino’s books and articles span the whole gamut of
Philippine history and culture-from Bonifacio’s trial
to Aguinaldo’s biography, from Philippine
cartography to culinary arts, from cash crops to
tycoons and presidents lives, among so many
subjects. In 1997, Pres. Fidel Ramos created
historical literature as a new category in the National Artist Awards and Quirino was its
first recipient. He made a record earlier on when he became the very first Filipino
correspondent for the United Press Institute.

LESSON 2

TEACHING LITERATURE – AN OVERVIEW

VALUES OF LITERATURE

What is values of
literature all about?
What are the values of
literature?

DEFINITION OF VALUES OF LITERATURE

 The phrase "values of literature" refers to those qualities of poems, stories,


novels, etc. that make them worthwhile to read. If we feel our time reading is
well spent, we can say that a work has value for us. If reading the work was a
complete waste, then we might say it has no value for us. And there is a
spectrum between the two extremes.

Literature has . . . if reading it . . .

artistic value
sheds light on the place and time of the author of the work.

cultural value
helps one understand the past and how the world has evolved.

historical value explores human knowledge, how we know and what we know.

philosophical value teaches a lesson that will inspire the reader to live a better life.

helps us asks questions related to the standards of a "good"


moral value
life.

ethical value
Entertainment Value

Literature has entertainment value if reading it gives occasion to enjoy yourself.


This type of value is inherently subjective because not everyone will enjoy the same kinds
of stories, styles, or themes. Being entertained is important, but being bored does not
give anyone license to reject a work outright. I can put the book down and not read it
anymore, but I should be careful not to assume that my boredom is somehow a
characteristic of the work I tried to read. Rather, I was bored, plain and simple.
Someone else might not be. At the same time, if a work is awesome to me, exciting,
intriguing, etc., I should not assume that my interest is somehow a characteristic of the
work I enjoyed reading. Rather, I was interested, plain and simple. Someone else might
not be.

Political Value

Literature has political value if reading it gives occasion to change how a person
thinks or acts. Politics is about the management and flow of power. And power, like
electricity, flows from one end of a circuit to another to make things happen. Reading a
work can jolt someone into action. It can reveal an injustice, outrage its readers, give
voice to the oppressed, ridicule those who are corrupt, etc. The main idea here is to think
about what the work of literature is trying to do. It has political value if it attempts to
persuade people or the world to start acting and thinking in "this" way. We can see the
political leanings of a work without necessarily being persuaded ourselves. But most of
the time, we will like a work for its political leanings if we are in fact persuaded to align
ourselves with the author.

Artistic Value

Literature has artistic value if reading it gives occasion to contemplate the nature of
beauty and human creativity. There are many works of literature that experiment with
the limits of language and its expressive power. If I like how words can be manipulated to
create beautiful works of art, then a work that tries to use words that way in a new and

Downloaded by marge espeleta (clbhoi00@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|17110832

unique way will have artistic value for me. I would say that every work of literature that
we read in this course has artistic value because they are all works that have remained
important over the years for the way they extended the power of language in a new
direction. If you don't like words, it will be difficult to see the artistic value of any poem
or story. The value will still be there even if you don't see it, however.

Cultural Value

Literature has cultural value if reading it gives occasion to think about the place and
time of the author at the time the work was written. Authors might seem like
supernatural beings or at least people who are way above us, transcending the world down
here to live among the heavens with their artistic visions, but they are actually regular
people like the rest of us. They care about what is happening in the world around them,
and they have experiences in life that shape their attitudes toward various issues. If
their work addresses the attitudes, customs, and values of their time (or another time),
then the work has cultural value. The work becomes a window into a world that is
unfamiliar, and we are encouraged to compare cultural differences.

Historical Value

Literature has historical value if reading it gives occasion to think about the past,
how things changes overtime, and how the world has evolved into what it is today.
Historical value sometimes overlaps with cultural value; if a work is really old, then it can
give us insight into a culture so far back that we can also think about how that culture
might be a foundation for our own. The cliché about history is true--the less we now
about how things were, the more likely we are to relive them. Of course, some things
might be worth reliving, and we might regret some of the history we have left behind, but
other things we want to avoid repeating. Works of literature can help us learn about the
past, process the past, and use the past to our advantage. Sometimes the historical value
of a work is that it shows us what we have gained and what we have lost.

Philosophical Value

Literature has philosophical value if reading it gives occasion to explore the nature
of human knowledge, how we know and what we can know. These questions are central to
the production of art because any artist must interact with the world in order to
represent it, whether lyrically in a poem or through storytelling in fiction; he must, to
some extent, know the world. But it is hard to be certain about what we know or even
whether we can know anything at all. Some writers explore philosophical issues pretty
deeply because they are often a source of crisis that can create great drama and raise
intriguing questions. If a work invites us to think about perception, making sense of our
place in the world, or self-awareness, then we can say that it has philosophical value. In
response to such works, we tend to look inward and wonder, "who am I?"

Moral Value

Downloaded by marge espeleta (clbhoi00@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|17110832

Literature has moral value if reading it gives occasion to learn a lesson. If a story or
poem teaches us how to live, or attempts to teach us, then it has a moral dimension. Is
the work still valuable if we do not like the lesson it teaches? Perhaps so. The best
readers will see the moral value of a work even if the morals it endorses are somehow
distasteful to them. Moral value is a dangerous value to measure. The history of
censorship, for instance, is based on the idea that if a work teaches the "wrong" thing, it
should not be read at all. This idea goes all the way back to Plato, one of the earliest
philosophers to explore the moral dimension of stories and poetry. We have to be careful,
I think, not to hold moral value as the most important one. If we reduce a story or poem
to a moral lesson, or require that a story or poem BE a moral lesson that we can endorse,
then we are USING literature to back up our own beliefs. To avoid this mistake, we must
learn to appreciate works of literature for its various kinds of value. "To appreciate"
means "to measure the value of something," and we need to try to find value in a work if
we are inclined to reject it simply because we think it teaches the wrong lesson. Here is
where ethical value comes into play.

Ethical Value

Literature has ethical value if reading it gives occasion to think about ethical
questions. If a story dramatizes conflicts and dilemmas, it is not necessarily teaching us
how to live, but it encourages us to contemplate the codes that the characters live by. If
a poem has a speaker who promotes a particular world view or seems conflicted about the
world he lives in, the reader can try to look through the eyes of that speaker and see
what he or she sees. We may not agree with a speaker's or character's morality, but
seeing that morality in action can shed light on what it means or how it changes the world.
If we reflect on a moral code, instead of simply rejecting it or embracing it, then we are
thinking ethically, and literature that promotes such thinking is ethically valuable. Here
are some important ethical questions: What is the good life? What is the excellent life?
Where do the definitions of good and excellent come from? Why do different definitions
come into conflict? On what basis do they conflict? Remember: works that raise
questions do not always answer them. To measure the ethical value of a work of
literature, we need to ask the following questions:

 Do the characters make choices in the work? What are those choices?
 Do the characters or speakers defend particular beliefs or points of view? What
are they?
 What motivates those choices or beliefs or points of view in the work?
 Where does the confidence in that motivation come from in the work?
 Is there a crisis in that confidence in the work? Why?
 To what place do those choices or beliefs or points of view lead in the work?

Note: Yes, we can appreciate literature in the negative: we can decide that it holds little
to no value for us, ethically speaking. But we must be able to explain why it holds no value,
the same way we have to explain why it does. Your goal this semester is to learn how to
explain your evaluation one way or the other. Before you accept or reject a work of
literature based on its ethical value for you, you must first actually measure that value.

CHOOSING BOOKS AND READING MATERIALS IN TEACHING LITERATURE

Downloaded by marge espeleta (clbhoi00@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|17110832

Factors Related Directly to Students


 Students’ level- the instructor needs to be aware of the students' level
and acknowledge that fact when selecting the materials for the reading
class.
 Students’ interest- material that the students are likely to be
interested in.
• Students’ needs- teacher should be aware of the students' needs to
be able to help them fulfill these needs by providing appropriate
materials.
 Students’ background knowledge- the instructor must be familiar with
the students' background knowledge.

Aspects Related to the Teachers


 Teachers should use activities that encourage students’ communication and
relate to their life’
ü use pre-reading, while reading, and after-reading activities.
ü use prediction making, jigsaw reading, matching or gap-filling, reading
comprehension, debates, and creative writing
Aspects Related to the Teachers
 lessons should be student centre.
 a resource which contributes to the students’ personal growth
 a resource for literary and linguistic development and they should not be
regarded as assessment material.

THE MODELS OF TEACHING LITERATURE

The Cultural Model

 this model represents the traditional approach to teaching literature.


 learners to explore and interpret the social, political, literary and historical
context of a specific text.
 by using such a model to teach literature we do not only reveal the universality of
such thoughts and ideas but encourage learners to understand different cultures
and ideologies in relation to their own.
 views a literary text as a product.
 treated as a source of information about target culture.
 largely rejected by those in TEFL.
 little opportunity for extended language work.
 views as a source of facts or opinions.
 considered as the information-based approach.
 as a way of teaching knowledge about literature.
 literature is seen to offer a source of information to the students.
 focuses on content.
 teaching methodologies tend to be teacher-centered.

Suggested Activities: lectures, explanation, reading of notes and criticism

The Language Model


 it relies on the development of students’ knowledge by working with familiar
grammar, lexical, discourse categories.
 it focuses on the way language is used in literary texts.
 it does not encourage creative thinking but the acquisition of information related
to text.
 most common approach to literature in the EFL classroom.
 refers to as the language-based approach Carter and Long (1991).
 students can improve their language proficiency.
 by using literature as a resource in language learning.

 students have to be intellectually and emotionally engaged in the lesson and
especially in the reading activity.
 students are encouraged to express their opinions and beliefs to make connections
between their own experiences and the text and use of critical thinking
 helps learners develop knowledge of ideas and language – content and formal
schemata, through different themes and topics.

SUMMARY

The objective of this module is to introduce the literature to English majors


who will teach in the future. This subject matter will enhance the critical and
creative thinking skills of them in teaching and assessing the 21st century or
millennial students. The first lesson indicates how the literature works as a great
foundation to learning what literature is all about like defining literature,
understanding the branches or genres of literature, identifying some notable
Filipino and international authors. The second lesson initially introduces the values
and models of teaching literature. This covers how literature comprises of many
values to readers and the authors themselves. The models of teaching literature
have something to do with the approaches and techniques on how to begin or design
a literature class through the three models of teaching literature – the cultural
model, the language model, and the personal growth model which serve as next
steps to more models and approaches in teaching and assessing literature studies
on the next lesson in module 2.
