Connections 2014 - Science & Maths through Drama!

Research shows that Drama as an active pedagogy develops positive attitudes towards academic learning in a range of students. Drama stimulates the imagination, activates reasoning, makes new connections and nurtures the spirit of inquiry.

Get creative with these workshops, ‘Science through Drama,’ ‘Maths through Drama’. Join teaching artists from the Singapore Drama Educators Association (SDEA) as they share how they work with teachers to design classroom lessons infused with simple drama strategies that develop critical thinking.

If you are also wondering whether drama helps or hinders in the classroom, join us for SDEA’s forum, ‘Drama in the Classroom: Boon or Bane.’ The forum panel is made up of independent teaching artists and arts education officers from National Arts Council and Ministry of Education. Join their discussion on the various challenges and benefits of drama in an academic setting.

Come see how Drama pedagogy can help your students apply concepts and fundamental skills of Mathematics and Science through Drama!
