Is it the American 'Dramatic enquiry' "Dramatic inquiry demonstrates how techniques such as role playing,
movement, and active listening are used in the classroom to explore
complex ideas and problems.
It is:
- Dynamic, hands-on, interactive
- Hybrid of pretend play, theatrical form, and inquiry-based approaches
- Can be used to teach literature, science, language arts, or social studies
- Teacher has to create safe space
- Students slip into the minds of the characters
- Role play goes into just character at time. Dramatic inquiry explores many characters, and how they interact, how themes emerge from the interactions. Students may switch roles.
- Learning authentically, connecting the text to real life"
or do you mean Scientific Enquiry? In terms of using performing arts/drama skills in Science, then there are lots of things you can do. However, when we are all clearer about what type of thing you are looking for then I will impart my vast knowledge on the subject.
