Training of educators of 2nd High School of Gerakas -Drama in Education

Abstract

Description

The teachers carried out the activities included in the Drama in Education with enthusiasm and creative imagination. The warm-up was done with the frozen frames, followed by the thought tracking. After setting the narrative context with King Minos, the Minotaur and the sacrifice of the Athenian youth, they created a poster with their thoughts as residents of Knossos. They played the "hot seat" activity with King Minos, they created a moving montage with two groups, where one was the choir and the other performed the dramatization of the young Athenians and finally, as youth of Knossos, they improvised when the king asked them to follow the procession of the Athenian youth who would be offered as a sacrifice to the Minotaur. Afterwards, the teachers reflected on how they could integrate these techniques into their teaching subjects.
