Abstract

This article investigates the integration of critical thinking abilities into communicative language learning (CLL). It contends that CLL, by emphasizing authentic communication and meaning-focused language use, provides a natural framework for cultivating critical thinking. In article are discussed many techniques for introducing critical thinking into CLL courses, including authentic assignments, critical thinking questions, group discussions, media analysis, and error analysis. By applying these tactics, teachers can enable students to not only improve their language abilities but also encourage critical analysis, evaluation, and synthesis.
