This study investigated English as a foreign language learners' global mindedness through the use of transformative learning experiences in the literature classroom. The sample consisted of 50 second-year English major students who were enrolled in the introduction to literature course in the academic year 2018 at a public university in the northern part of Thailand. The instruments included six lesson plans using transformative learning theory to promote global mindedness, a Global Mindedness Scale, a classroom observation schedule, and a list of semi-structured interview questions. The t test was used to compare the participants' global mindedness before and after engaging in the activities based on transformative learning theory. Content analysis was also performed on the students' work output to explore their transformational learning experiences. This study found that student global mindedness following participation in activities based on transformative learning theory was significantly higher compared to their global mindedness prior to engaging in the activities.
