Abstract

This paper explores the importance of implementing critical literacy in teaching and learning activities for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners in Indonesia, especially in today’s digital world where misinformation spreads easily. The highlights three major benefits of critical literacy: enhancing student’s critical awareness, enabling deeper examination of texts within social and cultural contexts, and recognizing the crucial role of teacher readiness in its application. Although there are challenges—like students coming from different backgrounds and limited support for teachers—the paper suggests that with the right strategies and support, both students and teachers can benefit from bringing critical literacy into the classroom.

Abstract

Internet-based technologies have greatly changed the field of education, especially in Indonesian higher education. Some schools have chosen a hybrid approach by integrating online learning, which gradually enhances the adoption of blended learning in the classroom. This study investigates how the EFL pre-service teachers in Indonesia perceive their experience as a teacher who uses a blended learning strategy in their teaching practicum program. The participants were some pre-service teachers from Islamic State Colleges in Indonesia who implemented blended learning strategy in their teaching practicum programs. The research design used in this study is a qualitative study, and the data collection method is a semi-structured interview. The data were analyzed by using thematic analysis in accordance with the TPACK as the theoretical framework by Koehler and Mishra. The findings indicated that the online learning component of blended learning facilitated both pre-service teachers’ self-efficacy improvement and their flexibility in choosing the teaching platforms, teaching time and place depending on their needs. However, the pre-service teachers faced challenges such as technical problems, limited resources, and face-to-face teaching preference. Considering the complexity of blended teaching practice, the scope of this study is very limited. Therefore, future research may need to explore how pre-service teachers' technical, pedagogical, and subject expertise interact with their teaching experiences.
