Teaching with The Norton Anthology of English Literature: A Guide for Instructors

The Instructor's Guide offers extensive help, from planning a course and developing a syllabus and course objectives to preparing exams. For authors and works in the Anthology, entries provide a "hook" to start class discussion; a Quick Read section to refresh instructors on essential information about a text or author; Teaching Suggestions that call out interesting textual or contextual features; Teaching Clusters of suggested groups or pairs of texts; and Discussion Questions. To help instructors integrate the Anthology's new Supplemental Ebook, the Guide features new entries to online texts and clusters. The Guide devotes two completely revised chapters to using technology in the classroom, offering suggestions for teaching the Anthology's multimedia with the texts and for incorporating the media into traditional or distance-learning courses. For the first time, the Guide will also be made available in a searchable online format.
