Abstract
The present study entitled "Use of Techniques in Teaching Poetry" attempts to
present a survey study descriptively and find out the techniques adopted in
teaching poetry at higher secondary level. To complete this study, class
observation form was prepared and 40 English teachers class were selected for
observation. Those classes were interpreted on the basis of 12 different criteria.
The data were analyzed and interpreted using simple statistical tools and
presented with the help of table, pie- chart and bar- diagram. It was found that
different techniques of teaching poetry were not used properly. Similarly, it
was also found that teachers were mainly using teacher-oriented techniques.
From the pedagogical perspective, teachers were not found consistent regarding
the use of different techniques which are necessary for teaching poetry.
This study consists of four chapters. Chapter one introduces the study in term
of general background, review of related literature, objective of the study.
