Using drama techniques to teach foreign language has a long tradition. Nevertheless, drama-based methods in Content-and-Language-Integrated Learning (CLIL) is quite another matter. This course will address the question how content from non-linguistic subjects such as History, Geography, Physics or Chemistry, PE or Art can be taught in a foreign language (e.g. English) through drama-techniques. In this one-week course, we will explore why, how and what for to use drama techniques in CLIL at a theoretical and very much at a practical level. Participants are required to "play", i.e. actually try and use a set of drama techniques, which will be called "games". This first-hand, hands-on experience will be reflected against the backdrop of principles of drama pedagogy, language learning, and CLIL for a clear understanding of the relevant pedagogical and methodological issues. Participants will also be requested for their course-credits to present some of the content from basic reading in class, preferably by using and through drama games. For the final module examination (MAP) a term-paper has to be submitted before July 31st, 2016. The course will be open to all Master of Education students irrespective of the combination of their subjects. The course language will be English.
