Critical Literacy

Critical literacy is the ability to analyze and evaluate information and messages in various forms—whether in books, media, or conversations. It goes beyond simply reading or accepting what’s presented; it involves questioning the underlying assumptions, perspectives, and motivations behind the content. By developing critical literacy skills, individuals can identify biases, understand differing viewpoints, and become more informed consumers of information. This allows for deeper understanding and enables people to engage thoughtfully with the world around them, fostering informed opinions and responsible citizenship.
