Abstract

Building on the concept of Freirean culture circles, this study reports on the development of supplementary materials to incorporate critical literacy into high school EFL textbooks. Collaborating with two experienced high school EFL teachers in South Korea, critical supplementary materials were developed to compensate for the speaking sections of Korean high school EFL textbooks. Teacher interviews, classroom interactions, and students’ surveys revealed five key elements of critical materials that were necessary for students’ critical engagement, namely: framing, safer topics, critical questions, critical vocabulary, and writing before speaking. This study shows that critical materials enable teachers’ critical literacy teaching practices, helping teachers deal with the dilemma between what is feasible and the principles of critical literacy. With classroom-based examples and discussions, this article offers insights to ELT teachers, materials developers, and teacher educators who strive to promote critical literacy in skill-based ELT classrooms.
高中批判性读写辅助教材 EFL
本研究以Freirean文化圈的概念为基础,报告了将批判性读写能力纳入高中英语教材的补充材料的开发。与韩国两位经验丰富的高中英语教师合作,开发了重要的补充材料,以弥补韩国高中英语教科书的口语部分。教师访谈、课堂互动和学生调查揭示了批判性材料的五个关键要素,这些要素对于学生的批判性参与是必要的,即:框架、更安全的话题、批判性问题、批判性词汇和先写后说。本研究表明,批判性材料有助于教师的批判性素养教学实践,帮助教师处理可行性与批判性素养原则之间的困境。通过课堂上的例子和讨论,本文为英语教学教师、教材开发人员和教师教育工作者提供了见解,他们努力在以技能为基础的英语教学课堂上提高批判性素养。
