C. Suggestions
This section presents two suggestions. The first suggestion is for further researchers who will use the novel to be analyzed. The second suggestion is for
teaching learning activities that use a literary work as the material.
1. Suggestion for Further Researchers
Jodi Picoult’s The Tenth Circle is a great literary work. It digs out the conflicts undergone by people in a real world. There are so many parts from the
novel which can be analyzed. Therefore, the writer suggests the future researchers to use Jodi Picoult’s The Tenth Circle as the material to be discussed.
The writer suggests the future researchers for digging more on the Daniel’s motivation in drawing the tenth circle. Daniel divides hell into ten
circles. Each circle represents conflicts undergone by him and people around him. Therefore, the future researchers can analyze the motivation why Daniel creates
ten circles instead of nine circles as Dante’s Inferno has.
2. Suggestion for Teaching English Using Literary Works
Jodi Picoult’s The Tenth Circle provides a lot of interesting materials which can be used to teach English. Thus, there are a lot of parts that can be used
to teach grammar. The writer will use the comic which is drawn by Daniel. Through the dialogue in the comic, the students can learn more about grammar
79 especially WH-questions. Moreover, the students can also analyze the WH-
questions in the comic. In the teaching activities, there are three main activities. The first activity
is pre-activity. In pre-activity, the students are invited to find WH-questions from the dialogue in the comic. The second activity is the main activity. In the main
activity, the students are asked to answer the questions in each exercise. The last activity is post-activity. In this activity, the teacher and the students discuss the
answer of the questions and make a conclusion.
