Abstract

Creative Writing (CW) is a crucial skill for foreign language learners as it helps them develop their writing and language abilities. It also enhances their thinking skills. Nevertheless, CW is difficult to master due to traditional ways of teaching and a lack of experience. Therefore, there is a need to examine the use of technology in developing learners’ CW skills in an attempt to improve their writing and develop their creativity. This study aims to investigate whether the use of technological tools can improve students’ CW skills. Data was collected from a sample of university students in Jordan, before and after using technological tools, and analysed to evaluate the effectiveness of technology in improving students' creative writing. The findings revealed that the use of technological tools had a positive role in improving students' writing performance, lexical abilities, and imagination. As a result, this study recommends the effective use of technological tools in teaching CW activities. It also recommends that the writers of language materials include technology-based activities to improve the learning and creativity of their students.
