In recent years the contribution of drama to second language
learning has grown internationally as a field of interest to both
teachers and researchers. The potential for drama to provide strong
social contexts for learning, to provide opportunities for the
learner to embody the target language and to motivate students'
desire to communicate have been increasingly recognized as fruitful
areas of inquiry. This book provides a brief historical perspective
on the development of this interest before presenting a range of
examples drawn from recent research projects led by those who are
themselves experienced as drama and second language teachers.
Drawing on a variety of theoretical perspectives and deploying a
range of methodological processes, the chapters present evidence as
to how and why drama can impact on student learning in a range of
classrooms, from the primary school through to undergraduate level.
Focusing on issues such as questioning in role, the professional
development of second language teachers interested in using drama,
and the role of artistry when applying drama as pedagogy for second
language learning, they provide an up to date picture of
contemporary practices and an acute analysis of both the
possibilities and the challenges facing researchers in the field.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Research
in Drama Education: The Journal of Applied Theatre and Performance.
