Reflections on English Literature Curricula in English Workshop 3/4

DOI IR

Abstract

English Workshop 3/4, the final year of Hiroshima Bunkyo University’s General English course, is a literature and literary analysis course. The literature curriculum was officially adopted in 2022 after experimenting with several others. Due to differences in student ability levels, interests, and requests, the course has used seven novels over six semesters of its curriculum, so materials and assignments have been created fresh each semester. This paper outlines the history of how the course adopted a literature curriculum and gives a general overview of the course format. The paper then gives a qualitative reflection of each of the seven novels and their themes and nuances while describing what worked well in class for each, what was challenging, and whether they would be reused if possible. Finally, the paper considers the future of the course and some implications of the literature that teachers should consider.
