Creative writing: trends in learning and teaching processes in text production

Abstract

This qualitative research, under the interpretative paradigm and with a phenomenological approach, was developed with fifth grade students of María Concepción Loperena School, in order to analyze the learning of creative writing. Based on deficiencies detected in textual production, semi-structured interviews, observations and focus groups were used to understand the students' perceptions. The study was based on authors such as Rodari and Cassany, Caicedo et al, and gave rise to the didactic strategy Natural Writing, which integrates imagination, experience and empathy as a basis for strengthening communicative competencies from a creative, contextual and meaningful perspective.
