THE IMPACT OF INTEGRATING COMMUNICATIVE, CRITICAL, AND REFLECTIVE APPROACHES IN LANGUAGE TEACHING
Downloads
This study explores an integrated pedagogical approach in a language teaching environment, systematically combining
Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), Critical Language Teaching (CLT), and Reflective Practice. The overriding goal of
this research is to engage students through various methods, including discussion, group activities, and individual reflection, as
well as techniques such as role-playing, debates, and reflective writing, to achieve the expected outcome in the teaching sphere.
This paper aims to cultivate not only linguistic proficiency but also crucial critical thinking, reflection, and communication skills.
Teaching broader sociolinguistic and nonverbal aspects of language is included alongside fostering authentic engagement within
digital literacy in learning environments. Investigating the adaptability of an inclusive and secure classroom that promotes learner
autonomy, self-evaluation, and a deeper understanding promotes learner performance in diverse academic contexts.
