Pragmatics in English Language Teaching: Developing Critical Thinking in Higher Education bridges pragmatics and critical thinking to empower university EFL educators and learners with context-sensitive communication skills essential for academic and professional success. Structured across three parts, it begins with foundational concepts—defining pragmatics (speech acts, implicature, politeness), its role in communicative competence, critical thinking components (analysis, evaluation, inference, reflection), and their interface through metapragmatic awareness and discourse power analysis—before exploring key areas like speech acts, politeness/impoliteness, implicature in reading, and intercultural pragmatics with comparative tasks and reflective activities. Part III delivers practical applications, including dialogic classroom discourse (IRF patterns, exploratory talk), materials design principles, authentic resource integration (videos, social media), sample lesson plans, and digital pragmatics for critical literacy. Drawing on research and classroom examples, the book equips teachers to adapt textbooks, design assessments, and foster higher-order skills, aligning with global Englishes and innovative curricula to prevent pragmatic failures and enhance reasoning in diverse EFL contexts.
