Gin Gin Gustine. (2013). Designing and implementing a critical literacy-based approach in an Indonesian EFL secondary school : International Journal of Indonesian Studies. 1 This paper explores the design and implementation process of a critical approach to teaching English, one that is termed Critical Literacy, in an Indonesian secondary school. Despite its popularity as pedagogy and a way of thinking in the West, there is a gap in terms of the implementation of a Critical Literacy approach in South East Asian countries, especially in Indonesia. As the study seeks to provide ways to design and implement a critical literacy approach in EFL classes, action research is employed as the methodology of this research. The method of action research applied in this study is based on the seminal contribution of Kemmis and McTaggart (1990) who described cycles of action research: plan, act, observe and reflect. Data includes classroom observation, students’ reflective journals and interview
