What is an approach? What is an approach? - Is the particular way of thinking about or dealing with something.

Reader-response Approach Group Work: Identify the key characteristics of each approach assigned to your group. Fill-out the prepared venn diagram and discuss in class. Group 1 – Traditional Approach Group 2 – Language-based Approach Group 3 – Reader-response Approach Traditional Approach • • • • • Close Reading Canonical Literature Literary Analysis Literary Elements Literary Criticism Close Reading Traditional literature instruction places a significant emphasis on close reading of the text. Students are encouraged to analyze the language, syntax, literary devices (such as metaphors, similes, and symbolism), and the text’s overall structure. Canonical Literature This approach typically includes studying canonical or classic works of literature, which are considered foundational and culturally significant. These may include works by authors like William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, and other renowned writers from various literary periods. Literary Analysis Traditional literature courses often teach literary analysis techniques, which help students dissect and interpret a text's themes, plot, settings, characters, and symbolism. Students learn to write essays and papers that analyze and interpret. Literary Elements Students are introduced to and expected to understand key literary terms and concepts, such as plot, characterization, symbolism, and themes. This vocabulary helps them analyze and discuss literature more effectively. Literary Criticisms While only sometimes a central part of traditional instruction, some traditional literature courses may introduce students to various literary criticism approaches, such as formalism, structuralism, or psychoanalysis, to deepen their understanding of literature. Language-based Approach ➢ Language Learning and Teaching ➢ Linguistics Language-based Approach Language Learning and Teaching It involves teaching and learning a new language primarily through written and spoken communication. It focuses on developing reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Language-based Approach Linguistics Linguists often use language-based approaches to study and analyze language structure, grammar, phonetics, and semantics. They may also use natural language processing techniques to analyze and process large volumes of text data. Reader-response Approach It is a literary theory and critical approach that focuses on the role of the reader in interpreting and understanding a text. This theory suggests that meaning is not solely determined by the author's intentions or the text itself but is actively constructed by the reader's engagement Reader-response Approach Reader-response theorists argue that readers bring their own experiences, beliefs, and cultural contexts to their reading, which shapes their interpretation of a text. Reader-response Approach ❑ ❑ ❑ Active Reading Subjective Nature Reading Text-Reader Relationship Reader-response Approach Active Reading Reader-response theory emphasizes that readers are active participants in the reading process. Readers actively engage with the text, choosing how to interpret and respond to it. Reader-response Approach Subjective Nature Reading Reader-response theorists highlight the subjective nature of reading. They argue that each reader's interpretation of a text is unique and influenced by their individual experiences, emotions, and perspectives. Reader-response Approach Text-Reader Relationship Reader-response theorists examine the dynamic relationship between the reader and the text. They explore how readers form connections with characters, identify with themes, and emotionally respond to the narrative. GROUP TASKS: - The class will be divided into 3 groups. - Each group will be performing and documenting at least 2 dramatic responses . - Each group will choose the dramatic responses thru draw lots. Dramatic Responses: Oral Interpretations Readers Theater Role Playing Story Theater Creative Dramatics Puppet Theater
