Form-focused Instruction and Literary Criticism Writing: Perceptions and Experiences of BSED-English Sophomores | Chapter 03 | Language, Literature and Education: Research Updates Vol. 10

 

This descriptive research examined how Form-Focused Instruction (FFI) affected writing skills among BSED-English students taking the Literary Criticism subject enabled students to actively participate in functional and social interactive activities which used authentic input logs that supported literary criticism objectives. The study developed an advanced understanding that FFI met its potential in enhancing writing skills effectively, but required individualised teaching approaches for students enrolled in the subject. Students received substantial benefits when using FFI approaches, including Contextual Analysis, Thematic Exploration, Comparative Analysis, Critique Framing and Reflective Writing to improve their critical thinking abilities while resolving individual academic challenges. Continual assessment and adaptation of FFI methodology principles should remain a priority because it represent teaching methods which must accommodate various student requirements. The study proposed educational practices which developed intellectual capability and creative skills in future English teachers to help them achieve advanced literary critical skills.
