Thus, an action research was conducted by a researcher in the effort to identify the potential of Friere’s critical pedagogy as an alternative teaching approach in the effort to instill civic awareness among students. Using the model action study methodology by Kemmis & McTaggart (2000), the focus of this study is to identify the capability of the students to reason the events related to the civic issues through the writing of short stories. Related to this, the study outcome finds that Friere’s critical pedagogy practice (1976) is able to instill the students’ civic awareness, by making a discourse of eight main themes (8) about civic issues inserted in the writing of the short stories.
