Active and Transformational Engagement with Writing Feedback : Using Reflection as a Tool to Access Literary Disciplinary Knowledge
- 2021
-
Ingår i: NJES: Nordic Journal of English Studies. - 1654-6970. ; 20:2, s. 183-206
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article explores ways of encouraging student engagement with feedback on literature essays. In addition to standard practice of student-centred peer review coupled with feedback from teachers, we have developed a scaffolded pair of reflection tasks on an introductory-level English literature course. With a focus on our two-step model for student self-reflection, this article highlights some challenges in encouraging active and transformational student engagement with feedback they receive from their peers as well as from their teacher. Based on a study of 243 student reflections submitted during an introductory-level English literature module at a Swedish university from 2018 to 2019, we propose that scaffolding students’ reflection practices is beneficent not only for their individual development as writers of academic texts, but also for their ability to address and engage with comments from peers and teachers.

The desert-governess romance : Regency England meets exotic Arabia
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Lund Journal of English Studies. - : Lund Journal of English Studies, Lund University. - 2003-7597. ; 4, s. 1-24

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this article we discuss how two types of popular romances – the desert romance and the governess romance – have blended into what we refer to as the desert-governess romance. In the world of romance, the governess and the sheikh may be an odd couple but they do make good bedfellows. Etymologically speaking, the governess (“A woman who holds or exercises authority” (OED)) is the perfect love match for the tribal governor who rules with steely resolve. In this paper we direct our attention to genre blending in order to explore the binary of captivity and escape. We look at a number of texts identified as archetypical desert-governess romances. What emerges from this analysis is that the initially disparate genres of the governess romance and the desert romance share surprising commonalities, not least with regard to the dual forms of escape offered by the fusion of the historical backdrop (typically Regency) and the geographical space of the desert.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Linking the fragmentary information provided in Kazuo Ishiguro’s “A Family Supper” (1982) to the first-person narrator’s unwillingness – or perhaps inability – to communicate, this brief note comments on a few passages that highlight the unforthcoming traits of the narrator.
