This article presents a research report on poetry teaching to Indonesian EFL students to
investigate their environmental concerns. It first explores the theoretical concepts of global
citizenship in the teaching of language and literature in the light of Ecohumanism. Applying
metacognitive strategy or self-regulatory learning method, this study uses students’
evaluation results, assignments, and reflection notes as data sources. It aims to find out to
what extent reading and subsequently writing poems about the environment can raise
students’ awareness to care for the sustainability of earth resources. The present study reveals
that, firstly, there is a lack of concern for the care of the earth, proven by the students’ choice
of poems to read and write. Secondly, the study shows that self-regulatory learning is suitable
to implement here as shown from the students’ expanding interests to deal critically with
people-nature relationships through poetry reading and writing at the later stage. This study
concludes that Ecohumanism as an educational paradigm can establish rationale to include
ecology in language and literature teaching. The “what, how, why, and what next” in
language and literature teaching should then be geared and habituated continually towards
respecting Earth in this mutually dependent world. |
