    Creative writing : exploring the underexplored
    (Assumption University Press, 2009) Ramnath, Rajeevnath ; Assumption University. Graduate School of English
    This paper is based on the creative writing course (also known as the "creative writing workshop") at Assumption University, Bangkok, Thailand. The first section of the paper will make a case for poetry as a resource for language learning and creative writing. I will also demystify the traditional notion of poetry as deviant, abstruse, and difficult for language learners. The theoretical points will be based on Spiro's (2004) McRae's (1991), and Tomlinson's (1986) research on reasons for and ways of using poetry in the language classroom. The second section of the paper will explore poetic forms with a focus on sound, rhythm, words, and structures. The discussion will include examples of poems written by the students in the course.

    An evaluation of cultural contents and activities in the general English textbook
    (Assumption University Press, 2016) Zar, Ei Thin ; Ramnath, Rajeevnath
    This is an evaluation of cultural contents and activities in the textbook, General English, published by the Curriculum Project, Thabyay Education Foundation, used in the migrant learning centers in the Thailand-Myanmar border. The evaluation was done to support Thabyay Education Foundation, a non-profit organization. General English has been adapted from Language in Use (1991) and developed for the post-secondary who are between the age of 16 to 25. This research was conducted to find out whether the materials were appropriate with regard to the social lives of the refugee students. The evaluation was done in four categories: topics, illustrations and activities. To evaluate these four categories, the researcher analyzed the textbook and interviewed the participants. The interviews were conducted with 15 participants from three different learning centers in three different refugee camps. The findings reveal that the subject content of the material is generally appropriate and potentially engaging to the young adult Myanmar migrant learners.

    This research looks at students' reactions to teacher written feedback in their writing at writing classes of the second year, in the School of Education, An Giang University, Vietnam. Interview and questionnaires were used to collect data. The findings indicate that the teachers' written feedback is legible, understandable and useful. In addition, most of the students desire their teachers to resort to correction codes because they are able to understand them. The students also have some preferences for feedback regarding the types of feedback including grades, error feedback and written comments. Finally, this study also gives some suggestions to help students play an active role in error correction in their writing.
