Opis

Process Drama in Action provides a clear and accessible analysis of the best practice when using process drama to support teachers in creating creative partnerships with their students. It provides a detailed analysis of roles of actor, director, playwright that the teacher must adopt in order to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to deliver a complete process drama experience. Addressing the dynamic nature of process drama, it links a clear and rigorous explanation of the theory of process drama to practice using detailed examples from the authors' international and cross-cultural practice to demonstrate how an effective process drama operates.
