Drama Term Tuesday - Arts Inspire Conference 2019

Robin was a keynote speaker at the Arts Inspire 2019 Conference in Adelaide, South Australia, June 14-15. This conference was an initiative of Educate SA, the combined association of education associations in South Australia.

We share with you four slides from Robin’s presentation: his five key messages for arts educators; models for arts learning; and, an overview of arts specific pedagogies for the five arts subjects in the Australian Curriculum: The Arts.

We also share with you, the outline of Robin’s Master Class in Adelaide. He modelled using Process Drama strategies to use drama to teach concepts across the curriculum. The Pre-Text for the process drama was a Chinese Idiom story. In the workshop called The Boy who Asked Too Many Questions - embodied learning in action, participants explored drama strategies and then made simple paper Bunraku puppets to explore learning in Science.
