Creativity in Teaching Different Subjects in English through Drama Techniques

Abstract

This action research examines the basic concept of creativity, theoretical and practical foundations and implications of drama and theatre as a method for creative foreign language teaching, especially for teaching English as a foreign language to Albanian students at Tirana University and other district Universities. Current research has found that participation in meaningful conversations in the drama classroom helps students develop their conceptual understandings of the subject matter and further develop their creative thinking and learning. Learning outcomes and findings are often shown through descriptions of design interventions that have taken place in ordinary classrooms. In this research, attention has been paid to the use of new creative methods, diverse experiences of individual students within FL classes and what they take away from participation in such discourses.
