“…As developed in the area of literary criticism and critical theory, Rosenblatt's RRT was gradually acknowledged for its powerful influences to the success of teaching reading (e.g. Kelly, Farnan, & Richardson, 1996;Langer, 1996;Lewis, 2000Lewis, , 2020. The notion 'response' in this perspective refers to both intellectual and emotional reactions towards the texts being interpreted.…”

The review explores the philosophical basis of the application of Rosenblatt’s Reader Response Theory (RRT) to teach reading-to write of literary works in practical senses in EFL contexts across borders. Grounded in the integration of paradigm shift from text- to reader-oriented, critical pedagogy and literacy, and socio-constructivism, reader response-based teaching pedagogy places learners among the active meaning makers as members of a democratic classroom community while getting immersed in critical reading-writing (literacy) events. Moreover, this critical review highlights the possible classroom practices as framed by RRT principles that offer freedom and enjoyment in reading literary works to face the sophistication of varied modern 21st century educational web-based platforms that lead to the use of e-response journal and e-literature circles by means of e-peer-reviewing. Drawing on the current technology-enriched teaching media, RRT application is expected to benefit most EFL learners in gauging literature-based literacy development to sensitize their intercultural communication across global contexts. Moreover, recommended practical trends of RRT principles are presented in this review.

Literature circles or book clubs are a component of many language arts programs in schools. These discussion groups offer students valuable opportunities to develop written and oral language skills. Speech-language pathologists can play an important role facilitating literacy and language growth in this challenging communicative context. In this article, I describe research supporting the use of literature circles and their theoretical underpinnings. Finally, I discuss supports that can be used in the classroom, direct intervention, and collaboration with other professionals.

This article examines the impact of Reader Response Approach (RRA) on learners’ autonomy in interpreting literary texts in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classes. The research involved graduate-level students and teachers from two public universities of Nepal, through Participatory Action Research (PAR). Data were gathered from two Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), twelve classroom observations, and two Key Informant Interviews (KIIs), involving a total of 54 participants. The analysis, based on the principles of socio-constructivism, revealed that RRA-based classes provided students with greater freedom and ample opportunities to engage in discussions on literary texts, connecting them to their personal beliefs and values by fostering their active participation.
