It requires lecturers to inspire critical inquiry, facilitate meaningful interpretation, encourage thoughtful dialogue, and create learning experiences that connect literature with language, culture, and contemporary society. At the heart of these responsibilities hes lecturer self-efficacy-the confidence to make informed pedagogical decisions, respond to classroom challenges, and continually refine professional practice

Written for lecturers, postgraduate students, teacher educators, researchers, and academic leaders, this book serves as a valuable reference for anyone interested in strengthening teaching quality and promoting meaningful learning in English literature education. It offers both conceptual insight and practical perspectives for fostering reflective, inclusive, and academically enriching teaching practices in higher education.
