Abstract

The concept of rhetoric and its pedagogical outcomes have been widely discussed in the field of EFL teaching and learning. However, on a pedagogical level, a few researchers have attempted to examine how EFL teachers can help their students develop their reading skills through rhetorical consciousness-raising. In particular, the notion of implementing rhetorical consciousness-raising in EFL classes to develop students’ reading and writing competences is still under-examined in many EFL contexts, including in Saudi Arabia. To fill such a void, this paper attempts to re-envision some pedagogical tasks that are aimed at raising EFL students’ rhetorical awareness in reading skills as a way of constructing knowledge.
