About this event

Role Play and character activities allow your students to try on different perspectives and imagine different realities or circumstances. These games develop critical thinking and empathy as students come to see there is no one truth, no single experience of the same events and consider whose voices are not being heard. Role play exercises develop writing skills for various audiences and create safe parameters to discuss sensitive topics. Join us for this interactive workshop where you will learn a variety of role play activities and get support for adapting them to your course and classroom.
