Abstract

This study explores high school English teachers' perceptions of critical thinking and their integration into English writing instruction, focusing on the Indonesian context. Critical thinking is a cornerstone of education, yet its implementation in writing classes remains underexplored, especially in secondary education. This qualitative study employs a case study design involving five high school teachers. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The findings reveal that teachers conceptualize critical thinking as a combination of analytical skills, logical reasoning, and creative problem-solving. Strategies such as argumentative writing tasks, peer reviews, and open-ended questioning were employed to develop students' critical thinking in writing. However, challenges such as limited student readiness, time constraints, and insufficient resources impede effective implementation. The study further identifies contextual factors unique to the Indonesian educational setting, contributing to the broader understanding of critical thinking pedagogy in diverse environments. Implications suggest the need for professional development programs, curriculum reforms, and enhanced resource allocation to support critical thinking instruction. This research underscores the importance of integrating critical thinking into English writing curricula to equip students with essential skills for academic and real-world success. Future research should explore the longitudinal impacts of these strategies and their adaptability across different educational contexts.

Abstract

This study explores the use of irony, parody, and pastiche in Sutardji Calzoum Bachri's poem Tanah Air Mata through a postmodernist lens. This research is motivated by the fact that literary works play a role in conveying deep meanings and criticisms. Sutardji, a renowned contemporary Indonesian poet, often addresses profound themes such as social injustice. This research aims to comprehensively analyze how postmodern elements are employed in the poem to critique social and political issues. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the study involves textual analysis of the poem and secondary sources. The findings reveal that irony, the most dominant element in this poem, underscores the disparity between hope and reality in the form of suffering society feels amidst Indonesia's prosperity. Parody imitates the dominant narrative in Indonesia’s national anthem lyric, and pastiche blends traditional and modern elements to create layered meanings. Moreover, intertextuality is used to analyze these elements, linking the poetic text to grand narratives and other cultural symbols, creating a dialogue that enriches meaning and inspires readers to look critically at social reality. This approach enriches the understanding of a poem entitled Tanah Air Mata and demonstrates the power of postmodern aesthetics in contemporary poetry to highlight and critique social injustices.
