The use of AI in creative story writing and the improvement of written comprehension in english teaching

Abstract

To learn English, the written comprehension and the acquisition of vocabulary are crucial, without having a base in them, it would be difficult to have effective communication in the language. This need with the increasing development of artificial intelligence programmes and its inappropriate use by students can be solved with the creation of this sixteen-session Teaching Innovation Project, which combines them. Students of the 4th year of Compulsory Secondary Education will be divided into small groups to create short stories in which they will have to explore a topic from a cultural perspective using vocabulary about culture and the right communicative function to narrate events in the past. These stories will help to practice their reading skills by creating Kahoots on them. In order to conduct this project the following active methodologies will be utilised, collaborative learning, group research and flipped classroom. This project is intended to make students able to use AI effectively and give it prompts for educational purposes, and lastly, to observe the impact of the use of AI on the academic performance and motivation of students in English learning.
