Zusammenfassung:This book explains why drama works as an enjoyable, social, and emotionally engaged way for children, young people and adults to learn languages, as well as showing how it provides motivating contexts and structures for acquiring and using real language in imagined worlds. The authors present 20 practical, adaptable strategies, based on research and accompanied by exemplar lessons, each designed to engage learners and stimulate purposeful talk within meaningful contexts. Process Drama emotionally engages learners and stimulates purposeful talk, within meaningful contexts. The authors refer to relevant educational, psychological and neurological theories and cite research that helps account for drama’s efficacy in motivating talk and supporting first and second language acquisition and the development of important life skills such as communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity and resilience. They provide a flexible teachers’ toolbox of pedagogical drama strategies. Each strategy is explained in detail and linked to a series of step-by-step, detailed, high quality, exemplar lessons, which may be adapted and used flexibly for different purposes and contexts.
