This book harnesses the theory and practice of dramatic arts for
the applied use in communication education. It introduces readers
to educational role-play and how to use it, arguing that complete
immersion is crucial to successful learning. Educational role-play
sprang into life in many places including the medical world in the
1960s. Now, fifty years later, the field has grown exponentially
across the world. Heinrich discusses how through role play
interactions become more authentic, discussion becomes more focused
and people take risks, and grow. Early chapters in Part I focus on
theory, show how and why role-play works, and introduce the key
performative factors of aesthetic distance, defamiliarization,
framing, and focus that produce its dynamism. Chapters in Part II
discuss how these ideas inform every aspect of role-play practice,
offer practical guidance on designing and running scenarios, how to
be more confident and mindful as player or facilitator, and provide
a wide array of techniques to handle challenging situations. Most
of the examples are drawn from medical communication, but the
insights and techniques are equally applicable to other fields such
as business, law, policing, and the military. The book will be of
interest to educators, workplace trainers and managers,
facilitators, role-play actors, and scholars interested in
role-play performance.
