Abstract
“Writing enables students to improve upon their ability to express themselves and use English as a foreign / second language in appropriate situations. (Alhosani,2008). An effective way to encourage students’ writing is to promote writing through visual art observation and emotion recognition. The purpose of the study is being to analyze and explore students’ writing based on visual art as input material through the lenses of appraisal theory. This research project will provide useful tools to pre-service English teachers when dealing with students lack motivation of learning a second language, in this case English, and writing. It will be based on an appraisal analysis with the purpose to analyze the feelings and emotions found on narratives after student’s exposure to visual art based on the perceptions they have of visual art as an input in their writing. A group of EFL Students from the language department of Puebla State University (BUAP), will be exposed to three different paintings from the impressionist movement as an attempt to promote visual literacy. Data will be collected through narratives and interviews.”
