3. The study of literature aims to promote
language development like vocabulary and
structure. It also helps one to achieve pleasure
and satisfaction in reading while appreciating
what has been in one’s own time and space.
This universality of literature makes it
appealing to everyone regardless of culture,
race, sex, and time.

8. 3 Models of Literature-Based Teaching
Personal Growth Model
In this model, the focus is on the
engagement. Teachers use literature to help
students understand themselves better and connect
with the world around them in a deeper way by
exploring universal themes.
10. Language Model
In this approach, Learners examine texts looking
for specific linguistic features such as vocabulary and
grammatical structures. The focus of this model is
psycholinguistic. Teachers may choose to focus on how
language is used within a given text. A literary text may
be used to provide exemplars of particular grammatical
points or lexical items (MSU-Tawi Tawi, 2024).
11. Language Model
The Language model relies on the development of
students’ knowledge by working with familiar grammar,
lexical and discourse categories. It focuses on the way
language is used in literary texts.
12. Language Model
The language model integrates language and
literature as a source to improve students’ language
proficiency while learning the language (Hwang & Embi,
2007). It uses literature in teaching different functions of
language structures from the literary texts to the students
(Aydin, 2013).
13. Approaches based on the Language
Model
Paraphrastic Approach
Stylistic Approach
Language-Based Approach
14. Paraphrastic Approach
Paraphrastic Approach is primarily paraphrasing
and rewording the text to simpler language or use other
languages to translate it. Teachers use simple words or
less complex sentence structures to make the original
text easy to understand (Divsar, 2014).
15. Stylistic Approach
Stylistic Approach implies literary critics and
linguistic analysis. It is for students to appreciate and
understand the literary text in a deeper manner. It helps
students to interpret the text meaningfully and develops
language awareness and knowledge (Thunnithet, 2011).
16. Language-Based Approach
Language-based approach helps students pay
attention to the way language is used when studying
literature. It improves students’ language proficiency, and
incorporates literature and language skills among the
students (Dhillon & Mogan, 2014).

22. Summing up, literature which is built
from language, serves as a gateway
for students to arrive at their own
understanding of words and
phrases. As they read, they acquire
new words, structures and sentence
patterns which are scaffolds for
effective writing. The use of
language in the literary texts within
its cultural context supports personal
growth.
