"Critical language pedagogy is teaching for social justice in ways that support the development of active, engaged citizens who will, as circumstances permit, critically inquire into why the lives of so many human beings, perhaps including their own, are materially, psychologically, socially, and spiritually inadequate - citizens who will be prepared to seek out solutions to the problems they define and encounter and take action accordingly” (Crookes, 2013, p.9)
