1. General information
The purpose of this subject is to prepare teachers to acquire the keys and resources that make possible a pertinent literary education for secondary school students, to reflect on the strategies required for their teaching practice and to intellectually train university students in the literary discourse of young people: corpus of texts, historical journey, perspectives of analysis and interpretation of the works. Its objective is to analyse with aesthetic and formative criteria the different types of literary discourse that make up the corpus of juvenile literature. Mastery of literary theory acquired in previous stages is required.
These approaches include the following SDGs: Health and well-being, Quality education, Gender equality, Reduction of inequalities, Sustainable cities and communities, Peace, justice. The acquisition of the learning results of the subject provides the competence to contribute to some extent to their achievement.
2. Learning results
1. Describe and analyse the basic contents of juvenile literature and apply them in a problem-solving context.
2. Value the importance of juvenile literature from a phenomenological, cultural, aesthetic and epistemological point of view.
3. Analyse and prioritize the different contents of juvenile literature according to their formative value.
4. Raise awareness and develop critical consciousness of gender stereotypes in youth literature.
The aim of this subject is to achieve a reasoned appreciation of juvenile literature as a valuable aesthetic production and as a formative channel for secondary school students. The proposed results are essential to provide students with theoretical, didactic and methodological knowledge that will allow them to successfully carry out their teaching task , as well as to approach research in the field of juvenile literature and literary education, both in the field of the construction of identities in the adolescent stage and in the formation of the literary reader and, therefore, in the development of reading habits in Secondary Education.
