Alhamdulillah, i feel very happy and relieved after submitting my RP. i know, the RP has made my life miserable for few weeks, but finally, i could not say more after this has ended. Doing RP has taught me many things. It is not easy at first, but after trying so many times, readings and do more readings, as well as changing the title, I think that I can manage to complete this despite having so little knowledge in Research Methodology.
Through reading articles and journals, it reflects me as a teacher that i should not be selfish thinking about myself only. it is because, I was very afraid to teach poem in my class. I did not feel confident teaching that because to me, poetry is very difficult. the language used by the poet, to me, is very weird to understand. i usually ended up reading peoms and asking questions to my students, for the sake of examination only. i did not encourage them to enjoy and appreciate literature especially poetry. My boring and 'dry' approach has led my students think that literature, especially poetry is boring it has brought a hostile attitude to them.
However, after reading quite a lot of articles, researches and journals, it has opened up my eyes that there are various ways to make teaching poetry fun, relaxing and enjoyable. one of the ways is through drama. therefore, i think RP has helped a lot to gain confidence and given my insights in teaching poetry. I could not wait for the school to reopen and to see my students enjoy in my class.
* I also feel more confidence in this journey of knowledge and am excited to continue doing my research on this topic. i hope my research later will benefit me and other teachers in making the poetry teaching an exciting ones.
