Hi all,
Please follow URL for very abriged version of my own methodology for
role-play. Coming from a language (EFL) background, I've often used
role-plays in teaching, "You are Madame Blanche, you are buying oranges
from Monsieur Thibeault..." This method provides learners with an
application opportunity to accompany "book learning." It has its
problems though:
1. Usually ad-hoc preparation of students.
2. Difficulty of sourcing material.
3. Difficulty of evaluation.
I've been exploring how technology can help. I've been developing a
data-base, interface and e-mail system to make this kind of activity
more systematic. At the same time, it does promise to be deliverable at
a distance.
This page is only a one-page overview, comments
welcome.
