Assalamualaikum to all netizen. Here i am to describing about Critical Literacy subject that we learn in our course, English Communication.
Firstly, after hearing the word Critical Literacy, I thought about the continuation of school literature but in a harder stages. I thought we will be learning more of the cute stories from childhood which we need to identify the plot, themes, moral value and many more but in an advance state because it was named Critical.
However, the real meaning of Critical Literacy is thinking deep, far and out of the box about some pieces of literature. On the early semester, Critical Literacy used to gave me goosebumps based on the other's interpretation. The reactions i got from seniors after asking what Critical Literacy is 'good luck' and 'be tough'. So, that's how i got scared in entering the Critical Literacy classes.
I also thought Critical literacy is about writing a hard pieces of literature. Actually, I don't really go well with writing. It is like a thunder which never tired in making me scared. I always failed to construct a good grammar rules in my writing because i always write based on my preference. But, although writing is hard for me, but i undeniably, really love literature. For me, writing is not something that i could afford as a hobby but, reading and knowing something unusual were actually quite fun. I can never rejected the pieces of literature which contain undefinable meaning behind it. It is like some sort of art that can stunned anybody who tries to interpret it.
