Abstract

Critical thinking is a vital 21st-century skill, yet many Indonesian students struggle to develop higher-order thinking abilities. This study investigates the use of the reader-response strategy to stimulate university students’ critical thinking, particularly in areas such as interpretation, analysis, and evaluation. The study aims to examine how the lecturer implements the strategy, identify the challenges faced, and explore students’ perceptions of its effectiveness. A qualitative case study design was employed. Data were gathered through non-participant observation, a semi-structured interview with a lecturer, and a questionnaire distributed to 24 students enrolled in an Introduction to Literature course. Thematic analysis was used for the observation and interview data, while exploratory data analysis was applied to the questionnaire responses. The findings revealed that the lecturer implemented various reader-response activities, such as personal reflection, written responses, interpretive freedom, and classroom discussion—encouraged students to analyze textual meaning, justify interpretations, and consider multiple perspectives. These are core aspects of critical thinking. However, some students remained passive or reluctant to express opinions. The lecturer addressed this by using scaffolding strategies and small-group discussions. Most students stated the strategy improved their text comprehension, confidence in sharing ideas, and class participation. Based on the findings, the study concludes that the reader-response strategy effectively supports the development of critical thinking in EFL literature classrooms when combined with appropriate instructional support.

Abstract

The use of comic strips as teaching aids for narrative writing is the subject of this study. This study used comic strips in the context of narrative writing to examine students' feelings of self-consciousness. The researchers conducted a case study to gather qualitative information for this study. A questionnaire was used as a research instrument in this study. The form of the questionnaire used by the researchers is a close-ended question with a short rating questionnaire (strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree or strongly agree) which consists of ten statements. To analyze the data, the researchers used the formula of the computation for calculating the data to be a percentage of each student's response to each questionnaire item by presenting them on the table and then described it as the questionnaire was examined. The findings indicate that using comic strips as teaching aids for the narrative writing curriculum is well received by students. It showed that the students gave positive responses towards the implementation of comic strips as teaching media in narrative learning material. Almost all of the students in the classroom were interested and enjoyed it while the researchers implemented the comic strips. The students are active in class activities. They felt using the comic strips as a learning media makes them better able to develop their imagination and create ideas for developing the stories discussed because, in the comic, the explanations accompanied by pictures and dialogues make it easier for them to interpret the stories or material discussed, even though in terms of language skills and vocabulary are inadequate.
