| Resumo: | The present study aims to unveil and report critical biliteracy practices of eight graders while they explore and perform different activities within a situated pedagogical design that was built according to their rural settings. In addition, it aims to provide insights on how this situated pedagogical design could promote critical biliteracy in which eight graders could reflect on and analyze their rural surroundings from various social and economic perspectives in the light of their knowledge on the English language. Indeed, this research study was framed within a qualitative approach guided by an action research design that sought to improve learning, make decisions in benefits to both students and the teacher. In addition, this study employed an initial questionnaire, a focus group, a second questionnaire, and a final structured interview as data-gathering devices. Moreover, I kept a teacher’s diary to thoroughly report the pedagogical encounters with the participants. The main findings of this project revealed that the pedagogical intervention promoted critical biliteracy practices in which the participants critically analyzed and reflected on their rural context and its social and economic implications as part of the coffee cultural landscape of the region they belong to. Furthermore, it was possible to foster a sense of agency in which the participants recognized that making decisions and their actions can improve and keep their own rural context alive. |
