The thesis focuses on the use of comics as a medium in EFL classroom and discusses the possible methodological approaches to an effective incorporation of comics in teaching English, not only in passive/receptive tasks but mainly in productive/creative tasks. Specifically, the thesis focuses on the possible benefits of using comics to teach and develop writing skills of secondary school students with a particular emphasis put on students‘ self-expression. The thesis introduces a comics project undertaken with a group of secondary school students. The project shows some of the theoretical assumptions in practice and demonstrates the possible incorporation of comics into EFL writing instruction.
