    Literature teaching in the English department
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 1988) Craik, Roger; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Eğitim Fakültesi.
    Literature teaching in the English Department plays an important role in language teaching, since literature is not just language, but it is language that worki at full stretch; it is artful shoping of knowledge and experience. Excerpts on the course are corefully selected in the hope that they would fumish students with vocabulary and increase their proficiency. They also make them bring their own observations, comments and sensibilities rather than memorizing as well as illustrating the period it which the pieces were writte. Wifred Owen 's "Futility" toke as an example here is not only presentation of vocabularly and structure atıd the illustation of the situation; but it is something that brings out metaphysical quetions on students' minds. The appreciation of the poem has been made together with the stu­dents and some questions for motivation have been asked. Active porticipation brings about many approaches as well as the students' observations and sensibilities as seen here, and that is what we except rather than vocabulary and structure development.
