Data are obtained form interviews of lecturers and students, observation during implementation, and validation notes. The expert judgment was applied to validate the design of the learning model. The final product of the research is a learning model of critical reading by applying the strategy of Reciprocal Teaching consisted of four activities namely summarizing, questioning, clarifying, and predicting which is extended into six activities namely, predicting, questioning, clarifying, self-monitoring, summarizing, and evaluating.
