Abstract

The aim of this paper is to examine teachers' attitudes towards teaching literary fantasy novels in the classroom. Given that fantasy literature, which is rich in fantastical elements, affects the creative development of the student's personality, the paper wanted to show the opinions and experiences of teachers on this matter. The descriptive method was applied in the research, the research technique is surveying, and the research instrument is a questionnaire, which was filled out by teachers. This questionnaire contains closed-ended questions, which concern teachers' interest in reading literary works of the fantasy genre and their opinion about the influence of this genre on student development. The questionnaire also contains open-ended questions, which sought to find out which literary works of fantastic literature the teachers like to read, which works they covered in class, and which works were proposed by the students. The questionnaire was also intended to determine whether teachers read what students propose in class. At the end, teachers listed the advantages and disadvantages of applying these contents in school. The research sample consists of 56 questionnaires collected during 2021. The obtained results show that the majority of teachers is not interested in reading literary works of the fantasy genre, but believe that such content positively affects the development of the child's imagination and abilities, as well as that most teachers do not read literature recommended by students. Also, the results show that teachers teach literary works of fantasy genre in the younger grades of primary school, although they do so very rarely.

教师对文学奇幻小说课堂教学的态度
本文的目的是考察教师在课堂上教授文学奇幻小说的态度。鉴于奇幻文学具有丰富的奇幻元素,影响着学生个性的创造性发展,本文想要展示教师对这一问题的看法和经验。本研究采用描述性研究方法,研究方法为问卷调查,研究工具为问卷调查,由教师自行填写。该问卷包含封闭式问题,主要涉及教师对奇幻文学作品的阅读兴趣以及奇幻文学对学生发展的影响。问卷还包含开放式问题,旨在了解教师喜欢阅读哪些奇幻文学作品,他们在课堂上介绍了哪些作品,以及学生提出了哪些作品。该问卷还旨在确定教师是否阅读学生在课堂上提出的内容。最后,老师们列举了在学校应用这些内容的优点和缺点。研究样本包括在2021年期间收集的56份问卷。所获得的结果表明,大多数教师对阅读奇幻类型的文学作品不感兴趣,但认为这类内容对儿童想象力和能力的发展有积极的影响,并且大多数教师不阅读学生推荐的文学作品。此外,研究结果显示,教师在小学低年级讲授奇幻文学作品,尽管他们很少这样做。

期刊介绍: NORMA is an international journal for high quality research concerning masculinity in its many forms. This is an interdisciplinary journal concerning questions about the body, about social and textual practices, and about men and masculinities in social structures. We aim to advance theory and methods in this field. We hope to present new themes for critical studies of men and masculinities, and develop new approaches to ''intersections'' with race, sexuality, class and coloniality. We are eager to have conversations about the role of men and boys, and the place of masculinities, in achieving gender equality and social equality. The journal was begun in the Nordic region; we now strongly invite scholarly work from all parts of the world, as well as research about transnational relations and spaces. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editors, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double blind and submission is online via Editorial Manager.
