Sumario:The aim of this master's Dissertation is to analyse the students' perspective on the use of innovative teaching methodologies, more specifically, on the jigsaw reading activity. This paper's main objective is to disclose whether the jigsaw reading activity is useful rather than avoidable according to the learners' opinion through action research. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected in order to investigate the topic throughout a survey and a focus group. Once the results were analysed, the paper concludes with the statement that the students' perspective on the use of the jigsaw reading activity is mostly positive.
