Abstract:Creativity has been discussed, observed and researched for hundreds of years in the fields of psychology and philosophy - from the ancient notion of the inspired genius, all the way to modern psychologists trying to define creativity and prove its effects. Creativity has recently become a buzzword in EFL teaching practices. We try to stimulate creative thinking in the classroom, but possibly forget to observe the processes within it. The article discusses definitions of creativity and presents a qualitative study on the decision-making processes within EFL creative writing and its connections to students' language learning. The qualitative study was conducted with two 3rd-year bachelor English students who were asked to plan and write a short story in English while doing a think-aloud protocol. The data were transcribed and coded in order to observe emerging categories in the students' reasoning for plot and language use decisions.

Title:Kreativno mišljenje in procesi odločanja pri ustvarjalnem pisanju v angleščini kot tujem jeziku
Abstract:Kreativnost je predmet razprav, opazovanj in raziskav v psihologiji in filozofiji že stoletja; od starodavnih idej navdihnjenega genija pa vse do poskusov modernih psihologov, ki želijo kreativnost definirati in pokazati njene učinke. Nedavno je kreativnost postala tudi ena izmed novih popularnih tem in ciljev poučevanja angleščine. To vse vodi v željo po stimuliranju kreativnosti v razredu, vendar pa pri tem pozabimo opazovati procese znotraj kreativnega mišljenja. Članek skuša pokazati nekatere aspekte odločanja pri kreativnem pisanju v tujem jeziku in kako se ti potencialno odražajo pri učenju jezika. Kvalitativna študija je bila izvedena s študentoma angleščine tretjega letnika dodiplomskega študija, ki sta načrtovala in napisala kratko zgodbo v angleščini in pri tem glasno opisovala svoje miselne procese. Podatki so bili transkribirani in obdelani tako, da so se izluščile odločitve o rabi jezika in poteku zgodbe, ter razlogi zanje.
Keywords:poučevanje angleščine, kreativno pisanje, kreativno mišljenje, odločanje
