To Develop Students’ Creativity and Social Skills: DRAMA WORKSHOPS

Education is a field in which skills, attitudes and values in social life are acquired.

Today, it is expected from the teacher to direct the education process, to create a step for education and to place the student at the center of education. Teachers are not seen as the absolute authority in the learning environment, they ensure that the student acquires relevant information efficiently.

The teacher is also considered as a supportive guide for individuals who discover, learn and make sense.

Teachers are expected to see the differences between their students, create enriched learning environments for them, and support the educational process with relevant materials. A learning environment where students can express themselves freely and show their presence in the learning process is important. For this reason, it will be insufficient to use only traditional methods such as the narration method or the method of asking questions and getting answers.
