Abstract:
The technique — Pictures in the Mind for teaching imagery — has been selected to accommodate the text of selected Quranic verses in English. Two lessons were taught to a group of students at the undergraduate level in an Islamic institution. This class is an English language Advanced level class. The students were taught for one hour of the introductory lesson on imagery and one hour of the above lesson plan using the technique-Pictures in the Mind with Quranic images. Observatory comments were taken and reproduced in this paper. The breakdown of the marking scheme for the two written assignments after each lesson is dealt with. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
