learn from autobiography?

autobiography is another type of text that we had read in this course. Instead of getting the students understand the text, this text also can make the students to know more about the person, -it might give some inspiration to the students when they read it and become a better person or just to develop patriotism in them. may be we can work together with the history teacher, use the ‘content based’ principle. This might help the students to understand the lesson as their will have some background knowledge about the person and able relate it in other subject! Rather than using an autobiography of a person who the students don’t even know him, it would be more effective if we bring in someone who they can see the relevance of learning about him.
