Abstract
In this action research project, I aim to enhance student engagement in my classroom by utilizing the Academic and Critical Literacy strategies I have learned throughout this process. To create a conducive environment for my students' meaningful learning experiences, I must ensure their active participation in learning. If I want my students to become individuals who challenge the world and advocate for justice, I must build their trust and establish a community that promotes student engagement. My personal teaching goal is to use my knowledge of Critical and cross-curricular academic literacy gained from this action research to boost student engagement and foster critically literate thinkers. This is where my journey to develop students into individuals who think critically and analytically begins.
