Abstract

Dialogue is the basis of critical education as a way to involve university students in order to be active in class, in which students can find a critical position by using critical thinking. Critical thinking is shown by seeing relationship between humans and the world, the thinking which views reality as a process and a change. The thinking does not separate the self from action. The practice of dialogue in classroom was undertaken by having students learn about important problems, did reflection by posing questions which made them understand the problems from a wide range of perspectives, then found the ways to take action to solve those problems. The principle of dialogue in the critical pedagogy framework is that dialogue should contain equal, open and critical inter-subjectivity between students and their world, and between teacher and students. Dialogue was undertaken by reflecting on what we know and what we don’t know. Students can take critical actions to transform and change reality. The dialogue activity done in classroom is based on love, humility, belief, mutual trust and expectation.
