Abstract:

Precision mental health (MH) holds great potential for revolutionizing MH care and reducing the burden of mental illness. Efforts to engage Asian Americans in precision MH research is necessary to help reduce MH disparities. Korean drama (“K-drama”) television shows may be an effective educational tool to increase precision MH knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors (KAB) among Asian Americans. This study determined whether KAB improved after participating in a K-drama precision MH workshop, and examined the participants’ perspectives about K-dramas’ utility as an educational tool. A K-drama precision MH workshop in English/Vietnamese/Korean was conducted with a convenience sample (n = 122). Pre-/post-tests on precision MH KAB (genetics and genetic testing, and MH and help-seeking) and a survey on K-dramas’ utility as an educational tool were administered. Findings revealed a significant difference in the pre- and post-test KAB scores overall, by genetics and genetic testing, and by MH and help-seeking. There were also significant increases in the overall post-test KAB scores by workshop (language) participation. Overall, participants responded positively on the utility of K-dramas as a precision MH educational tool. This study demonstrates the feasibility of K-drama as an innovative and widely available health education tool to educate communities about precision MH.

Abstract:

The article dwells on the use of drama and performance techniques in education and social work in connection with multiple intelligence theory, emotional intelligence theory, and brain based learning. The author connects the use of drama in the alternative theories of teaching and learning based on recent neuroscientific research, and lays out an integrative approach to teaching and learning that promotes inclusion, diversity, and social awareness, through embodied and contextualized learning. If we perceive cognition and emotion as interrelated, then drama as an educational tool becomes essential. It creates metaphors of our lives, which we lead through both cognitive and emotional domains. Art and creativity play an essential role in connections between the body, emotions, and the mind. Moreover, as we live in relationship to the rest of the world around us, our learning is embodied, our brain, emotions, and physiology are constantly connected. Thus, the article demonstrates that drama and performance are vital in teaching the whole child, whether taught as a discipline or used as a teaching tool. This means, the author claims, educators, neuropsychologists, and theatre and drama specialists have to have open minds and be willing to step out of comfort zones and together make a case for using theatre and drama methods as a way to improve human lives.

Abstract:

The article explores the potential of applying process drama in moral education in Chinese schools. By conducting a thematic review of the current national curriculum and policy documents from both historical and contemporary perspectives, the interconnection between the role of art and moral cultivation in China is discussed. Through an analysis of the national curriculum, the article suggests that applying process drama in school education can contribute to learning in the curriculum areas of both aesthetic and moral education. However, the existing commingling of concepts and definitions influences the actual drama practices in China. Consequently, a discussion of terminology is brought in, as well as an argument for the need to include drama as a discrete subject in schools, in addition to its function as a method for educational purposes. A process drama sample from the author’s drama praxis is included. The overall aim of the article is to contribute to an extended understanding of educational drama and theatre in a Chinese context and to gain new insights into possibilities and challenges for the future implementation of drama in education in China.

Abstract:

Teacher training should promote the professional competence of student teachers to plan drama education. This study focuses on how designing a drama course based on the Steps of Progress (SPM) and Arc of Drama (ADM) models can promote the adoption of drama education as described by student teachers. Research data was collected from the synthesis of student teachers (N=39) who participated in the 2019 drama education course in adult teacher education. The research method is qualitative content analysis. The research question is how does SPM and ADM-based drama education contribute to student teachers' understanding of drama education practices? The results suggest that drama teaching based on the SPM and ADM design principles promotes the adoption of drama teaching by student teachers and that the models also develop an understanding of drama teaching design. The results support the perspective that SPM and ADM work in drama education planning by enabling grouping, cohesion, and the adoption of the drama methods themselves Furthermore, the role of the teacher as a designer and sensitive facilitator of drama education is essential as it is important to maintain interaction and the power of presence.

Abstract:

During the winter of 2011-2012, Weardale, England, was the setting for an ambitious informal adult education project. In this rural area in the northeast part of the country, the local arts collective, Jack Drum Arts, established a community play project entitled The Bonny Moorhen. This dramatic undertaking aimed to retell the story of the infamous Battle of Stanhope, a local lead miners’ uprising. The project took place in a converted barn and involved a group of sixty learners of all ages and from all walks of life. The troupe formed the choir, band, backstage crew, and company of actors who, with the support of professional artists, built a temporary theater space. Each member of this collective made a personal journey. Here Helen Mills and Alan Anderson, in association with Julie Ward, cofounder and project producer at Jack Drum Arts, offer their personal testimonies from the project.

Abstract:

With the continuous development of multimedia technology and children’s drama education as a very important part of preschool education, the combination of the two has attracted the attention of many scholars at home and abroad. Drama education for preschool children is the initial stage of children’s learning and the most important part of preschool education system. At the same time, preschool children drama education is the most basic stage of children’s intellectual development. The correct and reasonable preschool children drama education plays a great role in promoting their intelligence and development. The drama education for preschool children based on multimedia human-computer interaction technology not only expands new teaching methods for the traditional drama education model but also provides a good platform for teachers to choose teaching resources and injects new vitality into preschool children’s music education. This paper proposes the application of multimedia human-computer interaction technology in preschool children’s drama education. We analyze the current preschool children’s drama education curriculum reform that has limitations. The level of teachers’ drama education needs to be improved. Young children lack awareness of drama. Drama education for children lacks strong support from parents and other problems. In order to solve the above problems, we focus on voice interaction technology, image interaction technology, and somatosensory interaction technology in multimedia human-computer interaction technology, which establishes a set of teacher-multimedia-student three-dimensional crossover multidirection learning activity modes. In the multidirection learning mode, students can quickly develop their sense of rhythm. Teachers use image interaction technology to guide students to think about the relationship between content and form, so as to gradually form their own unique style of drama. At the same time, somatosensory interaction technology can cultivate teaching tasks seamlessly connected with the environment, so that students can follow the hologram through hands-on practice. Finally, this paper sets up a questionnaire on the experience of human-computer interaction mode in preschool children’s drama education, mainly to conduct a questionnaire survey on front-line drama teachers, aiming at preschool children’s drama learning activities and teachers’ teaching methods. In numerical experiments, we show teachers’ evaluation of the teaching effect of speech synthesis technology integrated into preschool children’s drama education and the classroom effect evaluation of speech synthesis technology integrated into preschool children’s drama education. The evaluation results show that the application effect of multimedia human-computer interaction technology in preschool children’s drama education is good, which can provide better services for preschool children’s drama education.

Abstract:

With the progress of society, a large number of talents with high comprehensive quality, high communication ability and high cooperation ability are needed. Ordinary exam-oriented education can no longer meet the needs of society. Attention has been paid to the introduction and promotion of drama education. As early as in Europe and America, drama education has been widely used. This paper summarizes and analyses how drama education improves students’ ability. This article reviewed and summarized several literatures, combined the benefits of drama education on students’ learning and personality, and added the positive impact of drama education on autistic children. Current research has found that drama education can improve students’ critical thinking, interpersonal communication, cooperative communication and other skills, while also connecting comprehensive subject knowledge. At the same time, the positive impact of drama education on autistic children is also one of the focuses of this paper. Combined with the literature and experiments, this paper also clearly states the healing and functional development of drama education for autistic children. The results suggest that drama education can improve creativity, communication and expression skills in children with autism. Drama education has a multidimensional positive impact on both autistic children and normal children.

Abstract:

The study analyzed the discourse used in Pakistani dramas that language change is influenced by social status. This study's research tool was based on the CDA model of the fair clough. The sample for this corpus–based study was taken from a geo-Pakistani channel, a drama named Syani drama and Grift drama. The data was collected from the internet. The objective of this study was to show that social status is powerful and stimulates people to change their language by their social status. The main purpose of this study was to identify the hidden meaning of drama and power matters in shifting lexicon. The research was about social status, which triggers lexicon shifts in some characters in a Pakistani drama. People’s social mobility is one of the influencing factors determining people's change of language. People with good education, job opportunities and wealth influence low-income people to use standard language.

Abstract:

Drama in Education (DIE) is believed to play a specially positive role in helping students in primary and secondary schools to form language awareness and develop language abilities. It has gradually formed its own script structure characteristics in the practice of local English teaching. By analyzing the scripts of 31 dramas staged by three local schools in the English culture and drama festivals, this paper summarizes the implementation characteristics of DIE from the aspects of story source, script source, students’ involvement, and theme distribution. In addition, this paper also analyzes the script structure favored by local teachers and students from four stages: the beginning, the development, the climax and the ending, which will greatly help solve the problem of drama creation for primary and secondary school teachers and students, and improve their enthusiasm to implement DIE in English classroom.

Abstract:

Abstract Traditional drama education in early childhood has been concentrated on the interdisciplinary level, barely integrating children’s mind, body, and spirit. Language, science, society, health and art are integrated through drama to establish connections among the various disciplines. However, it is very important for children to walk between the worlds of reality and fiction through drama, interact with body and mind, and construct a complete experience. To achieve maximum integration of body and mind that is based on “education as growth” as in Dewey’s Experience and Education (1938), Growing Drama, a new integrated paradigm, maintains that the drama education of young children drama follow their drama experience construction.

Abstract:

This article examines how an educator develops a drama pedagogy through the course of her dramatic interactions with three toddlers. A cultural-historical approach was used to explore the concepts of dramatic interactions and dimensions of drama pedagogy. Visual research methodology involved video observations and a reflective interview with the educator. A case example uses an everyday moment that took place in an Australian childcare centre. This is discussed to show how drama pedagogy unfolds to support toddlers’ learning and development. The case example occurs in a special space known as the neighbourhood space. A drama pedagogy has been conceptualised through three dimensions: a space that has dramatic qualities, interactions and narratives. These foster an inquiry stance in toddlers. It is argued that drama pedagogy is an intentional pedagogical approach to engage toddlers in the neighbourhood space. This article gives focus to an educator who embraces a dramatic conversation style we call dialogue commentary.

Abstract:

From the 1960s onwards, Dorothy Heathcote became a highly influential figure in UK drama education. Her practice, based around unscripted, participatory dramas in which students were often guided by a teacher working ‘in role’, helped to shape the way drama is taught in schools today, particularly within the process drama approach. Influenced by a range of educational theorists and practitioners, Heathcote developed a style of educational drama that she saw as being distinct from ‘theatre’, and more concerned with experiencing drama than performing it. To this end, she developed a number of dramatic techniques, such as ‘Teacher in Role’ and ‘Mantle of the Expert’, to help students inhabit dramatic contexts and learn through the direct imagined experience of a particular place, time or problem to be solved. These techniques have much to offer language teaching, particularly when communication is the main goal. Placing students in dramatic contexts is claimed to enhance motivation and engagement and lead to more truly authentic communication than is often found in language classrooms. Using a framework based on Heathcote’s techniques, and those developed by other process drama educators, language teachers can begin to explore the many benefits drama can offer language learners.

Abstract:

There is a continuous demand for innovative foreign language teaching approaches in current education system. The article discusses Educational drama as an effective method in developing foreign language (English) learners’ sociolinguistic competence. Theoretical and practical overview of the research will be presented to highlight the importance of the method. In pedagogy, there are many advantages of the Educational drama method. Drama encourages students to acquire cognitive knowledge. As active learners, they not only receive information, but also develop creative thinking skills. Language teaching through drama creates intrinsic motivation (internal motivation) for students to learn the language. In drama classes, students learn to work with other students in collaboration, increase self-confidence, and begin to think critically listening to each other. Most importantly it enhances students’ cultural understanding of the target language. In the article the implementation of the drama approach in secondary school EFL classroom in Uzbekistan will be described together with investigation and survey results. Theoretical value of the research will be provided supported by opinions of scholars of the field. Types of Educational drama, organizing drama lessons, managing the classroom and other peculiarities of drama approach will be explained.

Abstract:

In recent years, texts for and about drama teaching in recent years have tended to focus on the theoretical examination of old methods. There’s not been much in the way of the new or unusual in terms of actual practice. Much of the work described in “The Fictional Family: in Drama, Education and Groupwork”, Muriel Gold’s account of her teaching with a theatre class at McGill, is familiar. There’s a strong developmental drama base, the idea that teaching drama leads students towards a healthier perception of themselves, pioneered by Brian Way thirty or so years ago. Teachers, myself included, who tend to agree that Way’s approach is the most humane and effective method of introducing students to the often unexpected demands of the drama class will find echoes of themselves here. There are improvisational exercises based on Spolin’s Who, What, Why, Where tactics.

With the introduction of drama in education and creative drama in China in the late twentieth century, drama in education has become a new practice and research hotspot in the field of education. However, children’s theatre performance and dramatic acting training have for a long time been the main form of Chinese preschool drama education and still have a noticeable impact. In this article, we explore how drama in education can improve and expand Chinese kindergarten teachers’ teaching repertoire and how it can contribute to children’s interpersonal development. This design-based study uses interventions in the form of drama in education workshops in a Chinese kindergarten. By undertaking these workshops, observing workshop participants and interviewing teachers and children, we have found that drama in education supports children’s language learning and helps develop their individual self-awareness. In addition, it also provides multiple new methods of teaching and thus promotes teachers’ individual growth as professionals in the kindergarten classroom. In terms of kindergarten curriculum reform, this study aims to contribute to the current developments and debates about teaching, learning and overall education.

Abstract:

Based on the authors’ previous academic exchange and observations, translation of terms related to drama and theatre from English to Chinese and vice versa is likely to cause misunderstandings. This research investigated what the translation of key terms may reveal about the understandings of drama education in China. Through a desk research, we collected key terms primarily related to drama and theatre from 26 seminal English and Norwegian books in the field of drama education and their Chinese translations, sorting out and comparing the English/Norwegian originals and the Chinese translations of each term. Findings confirmed that the same Chinese expressions had been used for completely different drama-related terms, while applied theatre-related terms may be misleading as the translation may refer to theatre architectures. Elaborating on the understanding of drama and theatre in China and the new drama praxis, the Drama Etudes, this study discusses what the term ‘drama education’ may refer to in the Chinese context. The overall aim of this study is to contribute to an extended understanding of drama education and its relevant praxis in a global context.

Abstract:

We have to admit that drama activities can give a variety of benefits for English foreign language learners of all ages in Indonesia. This article describes how a collaborative drama project could enhance twenty-seven undergraduate students in the sixth semester of the English education study program of a small private college in Cimahi, West Java, Indonesia. Drama, which could be considered a literary exposure for the participants, is one subject being taught as intra-curricular activities for 3 credit hours per semester, where they took the subject for the whole semester. The final assignment for this subject is a collaborative drama project in the English language. The article summarises the benefits of using collaborative drama activities to enhance the participants’ English language skills and offers recommendations for the implementation of similar projects for other language instructors. Further, the challenges of organizing collaborative English language drama projects at the college will be outlined. As the final elucidation of this article, the participants’ experiences during the collaborative drama project were analysed briefly through an interview as feedback on the research. Their self-perceived learning through collaborative drama is also highlighted. Keywords: collaborative drama project, English language learning, undergraduate students

Abstract:

Abstract Pan-Arab dramas (Ar. al-drama al-ʿarabiyya al-mushtaraka) are a recent trend in Arabic drama series (Ar. musalsalat); they portray an ensemble of characters of various Arab nationalities in a transnational narrative setting. By considering transnational television a factor that contributes to the cosmopolitan imagination, and given the argument that Gulf cities are replacing historical Arab capitals and becoming ‘new centers’ for Arab culture, education and business, we explore the manner in which cosmopolitanism is represented in transnational Arab drama content. We do this through a case study of ‘04’ (Zero Four), a pan-Arab drama series that tells the story of four young expatriates of four Arab nationalities, experiencing their personal, professional and private lives in modern-day Dubai. We find that the boundaries of the cosmopolitan imagined community encompass the Arab world, resulting in a cosmopolitan imaginary that seems to favor Arabs over non-Arabs.

Abstract:

Objectives The purpose of this study is to introduce an educational method for primary school students to develop context-oriented real English communication skills through process drama based on primary English textbook. Methods A fairy tale(Peter pan) for process drama activities was extracted by analyzing English textbook for primary school 3rd grade of publishing D. In addition, a model for process drama education was developed by referring to the models of Kao & O’Neill(1998) and Ellis(1988). Results Based on the process drama model developed in this study, two lesson plans were constructed using the fairy tale ‘Peter pan’ from the 3rd grade English textbook of publishing D. Additionally, various process drama activities(Pre-text, Mime, Improvisation, Teacher in role, Writing in role, Still image & Thought tracking, Hot seating) were introduced based on the context through the fairy tale(Peter pan) by composing three stages of Preparation Phase, Drama Scenes, and Reflective Phase for each lesson. Conclusions To develop primary school students' real English communication skills, it is necessary to move away from mechanical and formal memorization practice, and to provide context-based and real communication-oriented education through process drama education. In order for process drama education to be successful, teachers must break free from authoritarian attitudes and open education that can negotiate meaning with students must be supported.

Abstract:

Drama is a way of teaching that has been suggested to support learning, but studies in science education are limited and the potential of using drama needs further scrutiny and design development. In this study, we investigate how creative drama may afford students’ meaning-making of abstract non-spontaneous chemical concepts related to chemical bonding, by exploring what kind of semiotic work students are engaged in when given the opportunity to use their own bodies as semiotic resources.We combine sociocultural theory of learning with multimodal social semiotic analysis. Our results show how creative drama opens up for different types of transductions and transformations that have consequences for students’ meaning-making. A conclusion is that the creative drama activities may afford student exploration of intermolecular forces in new ways in particular when students use bodily mode in combination with other semiotic resources.

Abstract:

Mothers-in-law play an integral role in promoting maternal and child health practices in rural Pakistan. This study discusses the design, implementation, and evaluation of a 25-episode radio drama featuring the mother-in-law as the primary influencer for maternal and child health practices. The radio drama was designed after an extensive pre-drama audience research comprising of 10 focus groups, and 14 in-depth interviews in Bagh and Mansehra. Post-drama evaluation comprised two focus groups in the target areas. The endline evaluation found that viewership of the drama improved communication between people of all age groups and social roles without offending their dignity, intelligence, and sense of tradition. Additionally, the findings showed that the audience demonstrated improvement in knowledge about danger signs for mother and child, as well as positive attitudes to seeking timely service from a trained healthcare provider. The study makes a contribution to existing health communication campaigns by introducing a culture-centric approach, through radio dramas, to influence mothers-in-law and consequently impact maternal and child health practices.

Abstract In the following article we try to re-evaluate, the place drama occupies in contemporary elementary education. By limiting the role of drama to literature studies and theatre productions, we lose a greater potential Theatre Pedagogy has to offer to a much broader educational spectrum. The participatory practices of Theatre and Drama in Education (TiE, DiE) promote active learning, based on a most organic children’s activity - play. While students co-create the fictional world of drama, teacher's guidance is crucial in setting new challenges, encouraging students to find creative solutions and reflect on often-complex social issues. Because of its art component, drama challenges the participants on a cognitive as well as emotional level, becoming a truly transformational experience. As such, Drama in Education is especially useful when approaching sensitive and controversial topics. This thesis is presented on a case study observing Year 6 students at St’ Michael’s CE Academy in Birmingham, UK, using Drama in Education method as part of History curriculum.

Abstract:

This article explores the relationships between nation branding, authenticity, language and their ideologies by considering two themes. First, how language ideologies and language practices texture the transnational production, distribution and viewing of subtitled television drama. Second, the extent and ways by which subtitled television dramas, in languages other than English, brand the nation to which they are associated. Using the context of increasing exports of Danish television drama to other nations, the article draws its empirical material from fieldwork interactions with industry professionals and viewers in Japan to consider both themes. The article proposes that there are different intensities by which Danish television dramas brand Denmark and the Nordic region; it discusses the implications of the use of English, and how branding the nation involves processes that are intrinsically fragile and require symbiotic relations with other languages and other nations to be successful. This article forms part of the Theorizing Media in Nation Branding Special Issue.
