Research on creative thinking has a long tradition. This study seeks to investigate the degree of enhancing creative thinking skills in the English for
Palestine curricula from ESL teachers’ perspectives. It also aims at proposing possible solutions to enhance the creative thinking skills in ESL
classrooms. To accomplish this aim, the researchers developed a questionnaire that includes a 20-item and semi-structured interview that includes 4-
question interview questions. The two instruments are aimed at collecting qualitative and quantitative data comprehensively to answer three main
questions. Findings of the research showed that the degree of using creative thinking in schools and curricula is low and inadequate. In the light of these
findings, the researchers recommended divergent methods of teaching, adequate training for teachers and students on different techniques, and the
inclusion of activities in the curricula to improve students’ creative thinking. It also strongly recommends teachers to employ Bloom’s Taxonomy in their
teaching method.
