Critical Literacy in my life.

I have been taking the subject critical literacy for about 4 and a half months now. From the first day of class, I am intrigued by the concept of learning the subject. The main idea of the subject is to think critically with a non bias way of thinking based on the application of the rule of 10. What can be said about critical literacy is that it has change the way of thinking, perspective and my point of view towards a subject that raised questions in my everyday life. There has been a major difference in my life after learning the subject critical literacy. It has given me input on how to judge and make decisive decisions whenever I am required to do so.

Critical literacy has made me realize the importance of logical and critical thinking in life. By thinking critically and logically this can further enhance the way we view life events and change the perspective that we have based on first impressions. I am a judgmental person and have always been, I believe everyone is a judgmental person but have different perspective and point of view in every single subject that we view. Through critical literacy, I have learned that to be truly fair and just in life the teachings of critical literacy should be applied. But in order to be true and just, we must have our own stand and not fall for anything. Being able to think logically and critically with a firm stand on what we believe makes a decision or opinion so relevant, convincing and believable.

All in all, critical literacy has helped me to become much wiser in making decisions and mature in the way I think, judge and choose and I believe it has made that impact towards others too. I would like to thank Sir Aliff Ibrahim Bin Abd Radzak the lecturer that has guided me through the whole semester, teaching the essence of the subject itself making much difference in me and further developed myself into a better, wiser and matured individual.

Thank You.
