This study aimed to investigate the effect of using the workshop approach for teaching writing on students' writing self- perception. The population of the study consisted of all students in the seventh grade for governmental schools in the Directorate of Education/Salt. The study sample included (280) male and female students, and was divided into two groups: experimental group; they were (4) classes which were taught writing by workshop, and a control group; they were (4) classes which were taught writing by traditional method. The measure used was the self-perception scale (Bottomley, et al., 1997). The data was analyzed by using (t-test).The study results revealed that there are statistical significant differences in self-perception in writing in favor of the students who already taught by workshop writing with a mean of (21.08), whereas the mean of the students who already taught by traditional method was (15.75). According to this result, the researcher recommends to give necessary attention to teach by using this approach.
