Introduction

Critical Literacy, that was the name of my new subject in the new semester. Critically killing my mind at first when get exposed to the subject. At first it is totally hard to adapt the subject like the previous semester for an example Individual and Group Skills (IGS). Critical Literacy is a continuous study of General English from last semester, and this subject is quite tough for me because I need to critique on other’s writing, and it is confusing with the terms that the writer’s of the book used. Luckily, the coordinator provided study guide to be used and a really helping lecturer to guide me and she taught new things and helps to improve a lot of things during my presentation. Thanks a lot to her.
It is totally clear that critical thinking in Academic Studies 2 and 3 is very important in order to connect it and make it relevant. Luckily we had given with the great lecturer, Mrs. Rosmawati. She is very suitable for the subject because it needs a lot of open minded skills and it does not have to all lecturers. Hence, she is studying at abroad and does she can adapt any opinion and share her experience with us. After got an explanation from Madam Ros, we finally can figure out a little BIT about the subject.
Firstly, we get exposed with
1. Topic
2. Content
3. Source
4. Audience
5. Rhetorical function
6. Purpose
7. Perspective
8. Positioning
9. Impact and,
10. Visual literacy
This is the vivid part in order to critics the article perfectly. 10 elements is the major point in the critical literacy and it makes the article perfect. After got the explanation from all the important part in introduction, it makes me feel interested to learn more in this subject and makes it critically. Now the auras of English Communication almost reach at the peak when all the elements unite and will contribute a perfect generation of Decomerz. Beginning is fun; intermediate is climax and final will be the fun. Sweet memory of critical literacy.
