Questions I still have after lectures and tutorials.

Well it is the 13th week and this course is coming to an end. I have learnt a lot about drama and did the simulated teaching for it. Now, I’m reflecting back on the questions that still remain. I think there are no major questions, since the lecturer and tutor are both informative and knowledgeable. I think the only question left is: how to improve my interpretation of any literary work. In any literary works, we need to interpret the meaning as this is an important aspect after all. Only through the meaning we can get the message or the theme.

I think in order to resolve this, group discussion or further research needs to be done. Through group discussion I can get other people’s ideas and interpretation and base on that I can build my own interpretation as well. The reason being is that everyone has their own opinions and by exchanging ideas and views, I can improve my interpretation better.

Another way is through research. Finding more information about a play or drama can improve my interpretation and it is a form of input as well. We can look up the info on the internet or from books. In a way it is a way to gain knowledge and appreciate the play even more.

Dear Sharon, thank you for bringing up this topic. I do agree that group discussion need to be done in order to improve our interpretation of any literary work. If we just do our own analysis, we will never get enought input about certain literary work. Others opinion do help to improve our interpretation. So it is good to sit and discuss together instead of working alone.
