Abstract

This research addresses the issue of critical and creative thinking skills (henceforth abbreviated to CCTS) in relation to Malaysian secondary school students. The aim of this study is to show how CCTS can be cultivated in the Malaysian secondary schools. The study advocates an integrated approach, an approach which combines the reader response theory and stylistic analysis to the teaching of literary texts as a method of cultivating CCTS among Malaysian students.
