Performative Teaching: An Embodied Approach to Teacher Development

Aspirations

We are conducting a series of workshops to explore Applied Theatre and how these techniques and activities are relevant to Teacher Development.

In the workshops we experience and practice first-hand drama activities and develop skills that are used by Applied Theatre facilitators working in variuous fields of therapy and education.

We are exploring the questions:

To what extent can teaching be described as an art?

What sort of artistic training is required for successful practice?

How can Applied Theatre inform Teacher Development?

In the workshops we are creating a piece of drama that we will present to an audience at ITI on June 4th at 18.00. The drama will depict our interpretation of the challenges faced by a teacher and invite the audience to offer solutions.

We hope you can join us: CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
