Abstract

The paper aims to develop a module for teaching language through literature. The paper does not fail to prove that a single poem can teach all four skills - LSRW. It also substantiates that when the study of language in Science, the same can be taught with the help of technology. The target of the paper is to delete examination-centred education and to add the method of teaching to help the students to live with received knowledge. A colleague of mine Ms. Rosy had been used as a student to develop this module.
