Role-play has escaped from the drama studio and established itself as one of the most effective learning techniques in language, literature, history, geography and other curriculum subjects. It is also a crucial component of most management and human relationship training. Few teachers have the expertise to maximize the potential of role-play. In this accessible volume the authors demonstrate through numerous examples, how role-play can be applied to all kinds of interactive contexts. They provide a wealth of proven practical strategies and techniques, including sound advice on what not to do.
