Description

The module takes a uniquely multimodal approach to the teaching of Shakespeare. It is intended for teachers, drama practitioners and anyone with experience of involving children and young people with Shakespeare. It will enable participants to explore and critically evaluate socio-cultural issues involved in teaching Shakespeare in diverse educational settings, both in the UK and internationally. The module explores recent innovations in pedagogical approaches, including drama, film, animation and computer games. Participants will be supported in providing a theorised account of their own and/or others’ current practice in relation to teaching Shakespeare. There will be opportunities for participants to engage with a range of theoretical perspectives and to test these out in relation to particular texts and particular experiences of these texts.Ìý
