Description

A Training Kit on the Dramatic Role-Play Strategy

It is one of the active-learning strategies that gives the learner the prominent role, prompting them to perform it as themselves or to perform a role for another person in a particular task or activity, and all of this takes place in a carefully controlled situation dominated by cooperative work and the learners' desire to perform the roles assigned to them.

The Dramatic Role-Play Strategy

It is the learner or a group of learners acting out certain roles spontaneously, without prior preparation, that is, in an improvised manner in front of classmates or a group of viewers. The results of the role-play depend on the discussions that follow the performance and the activities that come after it, such as acting out the roles of the school principal and teachers.

The Importance of Role-Play in the Student's Life

  • The role-play method is distinguished by developing and activating students' expressive abilities.

  • A continuation of what learners are used to doing in their ordinary lives.

  • Encouraging them to master thinking skill and analysis

  • Role-play achieves harmony between ideas and skills in order to reach creativity and the continuous evaluation of one's own behaviour, so as to reach a stage of self-satisfaction

  • Role-play is considered a method derived from the science of social drama (sociodrama)
