Critical Reading is the art of asking oneself about the text, “Why did it happen? How did it happen? What should be done instead, or be done thereafter?”
Critical Reading - The reader is challenged to reason and justify his/her thoughts, ideas, and decisions.
• Baraceros (2005) expressed that critical reading is necessary for the students to know how to examine critically what they see, feel, and read to be able to make good judgement or decisions for the welfare of their countrymen
