Issues in British and American Novel Class and A Case Study

&nbsp;&nbsp;This essay aims to investigate some issues in British and American novel class and explore how the teachers of British American novel class can effectively conduct their teaching. For this purpose, I present some objectives of British and American novel class and examine several texts and methodologies I have used in my class. Especially this article tries to interrogate several topics and problems teachers might face while teaching British and American texts.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;This article emphasizes the use of film and the combination of three fields, i.e., teaching British and American novel, practical English, and area studies. I discuss Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations, Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, James Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter and Richard Wright’s Native Son to specifically show my teaching methods. Through this discussion this article ultimately tries to demonstrate the new direction of British and American novel education to catch up with the current needs of Korean universities and society.
