Self esteem- and Drama in Education
The Development of
Drama Education with Reference to its Application in Self–Esteem
Summary
The lineage of Drama as an active learning method will be
traced from the beginning of this century.
This sets the context in which Drama in Education evolved. In this study I will review its use as a
form of interactive collaboration and the development of models of drama from
the personal to the social.
Connections to theories of socio-dramatic play will be
illustrated. Developments in the role of the teacher and views on interventionist
play will be described. Techniques and styles of drama will be examined, from
Psychodrama to Drama for free-expression and Drama for personal development.
More recent developments in Drama in Education will be reviewed, particularly
teacher-as-participant type drama, which changed the educational purpose and
dynamic into a heuristic social voyage in search of meaning.
