Methodology of Using Political and Social Texts in the Process of Language Teaching

Abstract

This article presents a detailed examination of the methodologies employed in incorporating political and social texts into language teaching. It explores the theoretical foundations underpinning this pedagogical strategy and outlines practical approaches for effectively integrating these texts into language curricula. By dissecting various methodologies, from content selection to pedagogical implementation and assessment, the article aims to offer language educators a comprehensive guide to leveraging political and social texts. These resources are viewed not only as tools for enhancing linguistic proficiency but also for fostering critical thinking, cultural awareness, and engaged citizenship among learners. The discussion includes an analysis of the challenges and opportunities presented by this approach, supported by case studies and empirical research.
