Instruction • The objective of this assignment is for you to find out what happens in the Literature component in English Language syllabus classroom. You are to investigate the students’ reactions to the literature lessons conducted in the school. You will be given a set of questions to ask the students. The enquiries need to be conducted in 2 ways: 1) students fill in the questionnaire 2) interview students for more information.
You are to talk to 10 secondary school students. These students have to be in the same form but they could be from different classes and different schools. For example if you have chosen to talk to form five students, these students can be from Form 5 Pintar, 5 Bijaksana, etc and from SMK Sultan Alaudin, Masjid Tanah, SMK Tinggi Port Dickson etc.
After you have collected all the information from these students, you are to write a report. Please refer to the internet or books for ways to write the report.
