Abstract

This research aims to describe teachers’ perceptions of the concept of critical literacy based on critical pedagogy in Sorong district. This research is motivated by teachers’ understanding which is only limited to the traditional concept of literacy, namely reading and writing. There is still a lack of discussion about literacy as a force for transforming social structures. On the other hand, research on critical literacy is rarely carried out on teachers and is mostly carried out on students, so that student teachers are still in confusion about what the concept of critical literacy is. This research used a qualitative approach, and data were collected using structured interviews using Google forms consisting of 13 types of closed questions and three types of open questions. The respondents were sixty-three teachers in Sorong Regency starting from Kindergarten to High School teachers. The findings showed differences and inconsistencies in respondents’ answers and that teachers’ perceptions in Sorong Regency regarding the concept of critical literacy are still limited.
