Theory: Critical Literacy

The critical literacy is focused in the relationship betwen language and points of view. It's a way to show the reader that reading is linked with cultures, ideologies, values, social questions; it's a way to show that the reader should not be passive.
When we are reading a text we shoud ask some questions to analyse it with a critical point of view.

These are some questions:

1. Whose message is this? Who created or paid for? Why
2. Who is the target audience?
3. What part of the story is not being told?
4. What are the positive and negative messages presented?
5. Is presented any kind of lifestyle? Which one is presented?
6. What values is expressed?
7. Change the point of view, how could it be if other person tell the same text?
