“…The relationship between creativity and attitudes with respect to the teaching-learning process can be identified in the level of participation that learners exhibit in the classroom; when creativity is present, learners actively participate in the task because it becomes more meaningful to them, resulting in positive attitudes (Guillén & Bermejo, 2011). However, as an individual engages in the creativity act, the intensity of this engagement can vary from person to person and from situation to situation (Zampetakis, Bouranta & Moustakis, 2010).…”

Una de las competencias más importantes en bachillerato es el desarrollo de las habilidades de escritura; por eso, es indispensable promover estrategias de aprendizaje gramatical de forma situada que doten a los estudiantes de conocimientos explícitos sobre la lengua para comunicar sus ideas eficazmente. Para ello, el texto literario es un recurso valioso que fortalece la competencia lingüística a través de la creación poética. Aquí se ofrece una propuesta didáctica, cuyo soporte es la estructura analógica; en ella se combinan las funciones poética y metalingüística de la lengua, por medio de la producción de greguerías, para analizar cuál es la función del verbo. De esta manera, al reconocer el tipo de sintagma verbal escrito, se confirma si la intención comunicativa ha sido expresada correctamente. Abstract This in an exploratory research about students’ attitudes towards English language learning and teaching creativity at the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo (UAEH). The participants were learners in the first and last English course, which is the sixth semester. The purpose was to find out what kind of tendencies the results exhibit as students advance in studies, and to what extent teachers’ creativity might have influenced the outcome. Data was collected from 297 students currently enrolled in the Instituto de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades (ICSHU), using a questionnaire and focus group interviews. Results showed that attitudes to English language learning are extremely positive among basic level students, but negative feelings increase in the last course. Regarding creativity, it was found that teachers are too enclosed by the school policies that they do not perform at their fullest potential creativity.

Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood

Since the early 2010s, there has been a proliferation of new platforms for children's stories (e.g. storybook apps or iBooks), but not necessarily greater diversity of story content or children's greater interest in reading. This article argues for a new approach to address the apparent paradox of a wider availability of children's literature combined with children's eroded reading interest. The issue is suggested to be addressed by considering the agency and aesthetic dimensions which lie at the heart of personalisation theory. Translating agency into reading practice means establishing children's early authoring, which can result in an eclectic approach to content and increased reading motivation, as long as children's aesthetic choices are fully supported. However, it is also argued that early authoring should not be conflated with achieving an overly child-centred literature, which would ignore the reciprocity dimension of community and society relations. Digital book-making is suggested to offer original concepts which might provide an alternative approach for future work in the area of early authoring.

“…Reading interest as a tendency of the soul to be obtained in stages to respond selectively, positively, and accompanied by a sense of satisfaction with specific things that are read. If you are interested in reading, you will seriously read the reading that you are interested in to get information or other purposes of reading [2,3].…”
