To Develop Students’ Creativity and Social Skills: DRAMA WORKSHOPS
This session has already taken place. The dates below are the next available runs of the same course.
About this course
Ask a student to role-play being a scientist and most will ham it up for thirty seconds and lose interest. Ask them to role-play being a scientist whose actual decisions affect what happens next in a structured, ongoing fiction, and something different happens — that’s the distinction Dorothy Heathcote built her entire teaching method around.…
Methodology
Participants practise a different drama technique with the group every day, rather than only studying drama theory.
The course walks through the real steps of drama-based learning — preparation, warm-up, playing, improvisation and evaluation.
Improvisation exercises, music and rhythm work, and group practice build both individual expression and collaboration skills.
What you'll take home
Apply core drama techniques — improvisation, role-play, re-enactment — as classroom learning tools.
Design pedagogical activities that use drama to build student creativity and confidence.
Use body language and voice effectively to support classroom communication.
Choose the right drama technique for a given lesson or student group.
