Abstract

Creativity is one of the 21st century skills that students should acquire to succeed after graduation. Fanfiction has the potential to combine developing creativity, critical thinking, language skills and extensive reading. The aim of the study is to compare the vocabulary, text difficulty and narrative complexity of two fanfiction tasks written by secondary school students to identify whether this task indeed helps develop both language skills and creativity.
