ABSTRACT of Thesis by
Camilleri Fiona
Literacy is a very important aspect in today’s
world and yet not everyone in our society is
capable of reading and writing. Students with
learning difficulties, in fact find it harder
to acquire the skills needed to be a competent
literate person in our society. More specifically
students with learning difficulties find it hard
to practice creative writing. This is mainly
because they find it hard to express themselves
and to present their ideas in the written genre.
They tend to make many spelling mistakes and
this discourages them further.
This thesis focuses on the plight of these students.
It recommends putting the writing process into
action in the classroom as a way of teaching
creative writing. The writing process allows
the use of different teaching strategies as a
way of motivating learning; it promotes cooperative
learning; and it gives the students the opportunity
to choose what they want to write about. Once
students start enjoying creative writing they
become intrinsically motivated and their writing
skills improve accordingly. The publication of
students’ writing presented at the end
of this thesis testifies to this.
