Dr. M. Nivedita
Volume: 15 Issue: 2 2025
Abstract:
This is especially true for undergraduate students in the realm of ELT where learners need to involve in analytical, evaluative and synthesizing processes. Narratives in the classroom is a basis for knowledge construction This study focuses on ‘narratives’ which play a vital role in this purpose within an undergraduate English Language Teaching (ELT) classroom. Written narratives, as well as oral history narratives, are a material that can help involve students in identifying, analyzing, interpreting, and reflecting on and about different perspectives. Through the lens of narrative structures, themes, and language choices, students can be encouraged to involve with texts in a more meaningful way and even forge connections to the rest of the world.
