Teaching with dramatized experiences

SUMMARY:

Dramatic is something that is stirring or affecting or moving. It holds the audience attention and 

we can feel emotion. So, if our teaching is dramatized the learners can relate, get attracted and 

interested. They can easily understand. 

Dramatized experience can range from the formal plays, pageants to less formal tableau, 

pantomime, puppets, and role playing.

•  In plays depict life, they offer excellent opportunities to portray vividly important ideas about life.

• Pageants are usually community dreams that are based on local history, it presented by local actors.

•  Pantomime and tableau are less demanding in terms of labor, time, and preparations. These are purely visual experience.So, when we say pantomime it is the art of conveying a story through bodily movements only 

• tableau is a picture like scene composed of people against a background.

•  Puppets is use as an instructional device, the show can involves the entire group of students. 

• role playing is an unrehearsed, unprepared and spontaneous dramatization of a "let's pretend" situation where assigned participants are absorbed by their own roles in the situation described by the teacher.
