A Practicum submitted by one of my
trainees (Ms.Anila) of the academic year (2010-11) is entitled “A study on the extent/level of poetic
creativity among high school students”. The following is an extract :
While
teaching poetry in the classroom...have
witnessed one constant and surprising occurrence. It is amazing to see that
poetry has touched the most unexpected of the students in the classroom- those
with the weakest language skills and worst behaviour problems. The reason is
that the world of imagery gives them freedom to communicate in a new mode and
releases these students from the confines of Standard English and allows them
to say the undesirable as imagery in Poetry.
Any
comments?
