THE IMPACT OF UTILIZATION OF CREATIVE ACTIVITIES ON EDUCATIONAL PERFORMANCE OF SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

This article explores the significant role that creative activities play in enhancing foreign language acquisition among students. By incorporating creative materials such as folklore, role-playing, and language games into language lessons, students experience a more engaging and dynamic learning environment. Creative activities are shown to improve fluency, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills while making the learning process enjoyable. Additionally, the article emphasizes the importance of fostering a positive and supportive atmosphere where students can confidently express themselves and actively participate in language learning. The integration of these creative methods not only enhances students’ language proficiency but also deepens their cultural understanding by connecting them to the traditions and lifestyle of the target language. Through a combination of theoretical analysis and practical examples, this study demonstrates how creative pedagogy boosts motivation, encourages cognitive development, and supports long-term success in language learning.
