The Use of Autobiography in Teaching Literature.

We learned autobiography and how it can be used in teaching literature to students. Dr. Edwin showed it by using Nelson Mandela autobiography. From that extract, he showed us how Nelson used of words in conveying his messages and thought during his life in prison and the effects of prison toward him. I think as teacher, we can use any types of materials in teaching students literature and how it meaningful to them. Not just autobiography, but also speech and diary in teaching literature to students.
