Abstract:

The purpose of the study is to examine the Perception and Effect of Undergraduate English Language Students have about Studying Literature. The findings of this study have some implications for ESL students studying literature in the language classroom. The fact that literature has been used to make English language teaching and learning more interesting, even at the lower levels of learning, goes a long way to support the argument that literature should be encouraged in English language teaching and learning in Ghanaian schools. Poetry, drama, and prose have all been employed in the teaching and learning of various components of the English language. However, the critical function of literature in ESL students' language learning cannot be realized without a shift in the mindset of the stakeholders. According to the findings of this study, many undergraduate students have a negative attitude toward the study of literature. School authorities must also encourage parents to buy enough literary materials for their children and also encourage them to read them. This will help the students to develop good reading habits which will in turn improve their attitude toward the study of literature. Creative programmes could also be developed using current technologies which will make students develop good reading habits.

Abstract:

Abstract The purpose of this research report was to find out how poetry teaching and learning is constructed in the Ghanaian and South African High Schools English as an Additional Language Textbooks. The research sought to ascertain which pedagogic theories as well as theories of literature underpinned the various poetry lessons in both countries' High Schools English as an additional Language textbooks. Qualitative analysis was used to analyze thirty-five lessons on poetry teaching and learning from both countries' High Schools English as an Additional Language textbooks. Similarities and differences in pedagogic approaches to teaching and learning of the poems were found to have constructed poetry teaching and learning in different ways. For example, in the Ghanaian textbooks, poetry teaching was constructed predominantly as formalists' approach to teaching and learning laiterature, but in the South African textbooks, it was predominantly constructed as interactive and Language learning approach. Different kinds of construction for both teachers and students were also found.

This is the first English translation of and commentary on the collected poems of Alhaj Yusuf Salih Ajura (1910–2004), a northern Ghanaian orthodox Islamic scholar, poet, and polemicist known as Afa Ajura, or “scholar from Ejura.” The poems, all handwritten in Arabic script, mainly in the Ghanaian language of Dagbani and also Arabic, explore the author's socio-religious beliefs. In the accompanying introduction, the translator examines the diverse themes of the poems and how they challenge Tijaniyyah Sufi clerics and traditional practices such as idol worship. The introduction provides a background on the translation and commentary. It describes Ajuraism, which is Afa Ajura's reform-oriented educational approach based on the concept of orthodoxy. Orthopraxy, according to Sunnah, that rejected the status quo of traditional Dagomba practices and the syncretism and innovations of Tijaniyyah Sufism. Afa Ajura's collection of handwritten poems address multiple intellectual issues and diverse socio-religious topics.
