Incorporating Vernacular Tribal Literature Into the English Language Classroom: A Study of the Gond Tribe of District Mandala in Madhya Pradesh
Abstract
The Holistic Integration and Appreciation Model (HIAM) was developed to enhance educational outcomes for students from the Gond tribes by integrating their cultural heritage into the curriculum. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the HIAM model in improving language proficiency, student engagement, cultural understanding, and community impact.An experimental research method was employed using a group post-test design. A purposive sample of one section of Class 9 students from Brain Child Academy in Mandla, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, was selected as the intervention group. The conceptual framework of the tool was tested using Smart-PLS 4 software.The post-intervention data indicated significant improvements in language proficiency and student engagement. Students demonstrated a greater appreciation and understanding of their cultural heritage, reflected in increased self-esteem and sense of identity. The community also reported positive impacts, including heightened educational aspirations and greater involvement in school activities.
