    The American Dream: based on T.C. Boyle’s novel The Tortilla Curtain

    Institut für Gymnasialpädagopgik IGB

    With T. C. Boyle’s novel The Tortilla Curtain as a stimulus, we will explore such issues as migration, identity, dreams, hopes and nightmares. The workshop will provide stimuli to help learners verbalize opinions and lead discussions while being in role or while reflecting on observed scenes. The drama activities will range from simple ways in which drama techniques can be introduced to more demanding tasks analysing some of the themes in Boyle’s novel.

    Creating Stories through Drama

    ETAS Ticino

    TGIF – Thank God It’s Friday! From that starting-point, participants of the workshop will develop their own stories and explore varieties of them through drama. A number of drama techniques will be shown that help learners verbalize thoughts and ideas – hopefully with more ease! The drama work done in the group can be linked with writing tasks and short-story reading. This workshop is suitable for teachers of intermediate to advanced learners.

    Drama techniques in literature teaching

    Institut für Gymnasialpädagopgik IGB

    Would Nick in Hemingway’s short story have joined his father to the Indian Camp if he had known what was going to be ahead of him? How satisfied was he with his father’s answers to his questions? – The end of the text is the beginning of the reader’s exploration. In our workshop, we will venture on a journey of interpretation via drama techniques: characters from short stories on the hot seat, being sent down a conscience alley, dead characters brought back to life, their thoughts tracked – to name but a few. Drama helps students to move away from pure intellectual analysis and approach issues for discussion via physical and emotional involvement. This sets linguistic resources free and helps to acquire new ones through kinaesthetic, visual and auditive learning. The workshop is suitable for teachers of lower intermediate to advanced classes. Age-range: teenagers and adults.

    A Day in the Caribbean! Drama work with fiction, non-fiction and visual input

    For teenagers and adults

    The Antiguan author Jamaica Kincaid portrays the tropic island of her youth in wonderfully critical fiction. Guidebooks reveal their image of the tropical paradise. In our workshop, we will interpret text and visual input via drama techniques: characters on the hot seat, being sent down a conscience alley, their thoughts tracked – to name but a few. Drama helps students to move away from pure intellectual analysis and approach issues for discussion via physical and emotional involvement. This sets linguistic resources free and helps to acquire new ones through kinaesthetic, visual and auditive learning. The workshop is suitable for teachers of lower intermediate to advanced classes. Age-range: teenagers and adults.

    A Forest of Stories – Working with Drama in the Classroom.

    PH Thurgau

    Drama is all about seeing the world from a number of different perspectives. Learning through drama takes place on visual, auditive, kinaesthetic, intellecutal and emotional levels and also involves the students‘ creative abilities. Using stories from different countries in the world, we will explore such issues as friendship, death, materialism, parent-child relationships and traditions. Teachers will learn to use a number of different drama techniques to enable their students to experience, reflect, analyse, and talk about the issues above.

    The Empty Classroom

    National Drama International Conference «Drama for the Future»

    Inspired by the way Peter Brook works, I want to illustrate how students of foreign languages with beginners’ to intermediate skills can create a drama production of artistic quality. Language, movement and props are reduced to a minimum, music and rhythm give the work artistic coherence. The students work with stories, either transforming (fairy)tales to modern times or creating their own story. Thus, the students’ receptive and productive skills are enhanced, they experience the foreign language with all their senses. The foreign language is embedded in the specific context of the story they create and thus, a maximum feeling of ownership for the new skills can be created. – The ideal surrounding to learn a language is a natural context. In the case of foreign language learning, such contexts must be created by the teacher. The only way to appeal to all forms of intelligences and to involve the learners with mind, body and soul is drama. Drama specialists in Switzerland include various drama techniques in their language and literature teaching. Others tackle larger projects that lead to performances of plays. My workshop illustrates how learners can use language naturally in the planning process of their drama project and how they can gain pride by creating a work of art with minimal linguistic skills.

    Drama and Writing; Weekend-workshop for teachers and advanced learners.

    drama in education Switzerland

    Aim

    Make you familiar with some of the ideas behind «drama in education» as opposed to the drama work necessary for the performance of a play.

    Programme

    The workshop will mainly consist of practical work and involves quite a lot of physical activity. The whole weekend should be seen as a «give and take» among all the participants and me. We will share experiences in the group and discuss how the activities can be adapted to your particular teaching situation. Basically, the activities will be useful for students of intermediate to advanced levels of English.

    • Different warm-up activities helpful to create a group spirit.

    Drama strategies to use in warmers and with a short story.

    ETAS Conference Special Interest Groups

    «You somehow forget that you’re at school.» — This is the feedback from one of my students after a double-lesson of drama teaching. Drama strategies applied to language teaching help students explore a text, novel or topic through physical activity. Students and teacher work in and out of role and develop a better understanding for an issue that is of relevance to the class, for characters in a story or for their own situation in life. As the drama is developed, the students are given choices to influence the work process and must take over responsibility for their decisions. Thus, the focus clearly shifts away from the teacher as the only person in charge for the proceedings within the classroom.In our workshop, we will do several warm-up activities in order to create a good group spirit. Once back in the classroom, they will help you get your students up from behind their desks. The short story River by the Greek author Antonis Samarakis will serve as a stimulus to become familiar with a number of drama strategies that can be applied to promote speaking and writing. «After the lessons this afternoon, I feel relaxed and enthusiastic about the proceedings next week. Successful drama teaching means to me that I can work without feeling the tension of having to keep the students on task constantly. My students and I can discover qualities about each other that are locked up during most of our time in class.» (from my diary).

    Language made alive through drama Every teacher knows the struggle of making the material from the coursebook become alive, the difficulty of reaching the students on a creative and emotional level and yet giving them the feeling that they progress in their language skills. Drama techniques used in language teaching can help provide the necessary context to create a stress-free learning environment for successful language acquisition.

    Drama methods to create natural contexts for communication.

    ETAS workshop Uster

    You don’t have to have any acting skills to participate. You won’t learn these skills at the workshop, either, nor those of a director of a school play. My motto is TRICKS AND TREATS — year round — and accordingly, you will go home with a bag full of treats, ready to do the trick! Regardless what area of the language you teach, drama will help the students loosen up and move in a stress-free environment. Whether your teaching goal is an area of grammar, reinforcing vocabulary, interpreting a poem, short story, novel or play, associating with people from foreign cultures … the list is endless and drama can provide an answer.
