dc.description.abstractThe present research tackles the project work and creative thinking.It seeks to examine the effect of project work as a pedagogical task in developing EFL learners' creative thinking, with a case study of first year learners at Ben Bouzid Mohammed Cherif secondary school, Dhalaa. This study attempts to answer the following question : Does the project work have an impact on students' creative thinking ? In order to achieve the aims of the study, classroom observation is used as a tool to investigate the validity of the hypothesis .Two groups of first year learners at Ben Bouzid Mohammed Cherif secondary school are chosen randomly to take part in this study. Our frame work took five weeks during which we observed learners during many sessions. Project work analysis comprises the description and analysis of the text book unit three and project work as well as observation and analysis of learners' productions. In addition to that, we designed an observation grid where in different criteria of a creative project are targeted. These criteria cover interaction, interpretation, production, characteristics and objectives of the project work, the teacher's role, as well as creative and critical thinking skills ; to analyse data gathered and to examine the efficiency of the project work in enhancing learners' creative thinking skills. The analysis of the results and the interpretation of the researcher's observations showed how the use of project work can be very effective in developing learners' creative thinking skills and confirmed that the project work is the context where learners' creativity is greatly developed and fostered. Indeed, projects make learners acquire efficient working methods and develop in them a sense of autonomy and responsibility. On the basis of the results obtained, some recommendations and pedagogical implications are suggested at the end of this study.ar
