Story, Play and Enchantment: The Importance of Drama for Children in the Early Years of Education 故事、戲劇和魔法: 戲劇於兒童早期教育的重要性
Abstract
This article is based upon a keynote address I was invited to give at the “International Conference for Drama Education for Young Children” which took place at Nanjing Normal University in June, 2014. In addressing the theme of the conference – Drama, Dream and Children – I chose to refer to two practical examples. My intention was to provoke some thinking about specific ways that drama can contribute to children’s social, moral and language learning, not in any exhaustive way but by drawing attention to some important considerations. In particular I wished to focus on the kind of drama work young children enjoy and are capable of and the crucial role of pedagogy in enabling this to happen.
Keywords: early years, play, aesthetic pleasure, Shakespeare, pedagogy.
本文依據本人於2014年6月應邀於南京師範大學《兒童戲劇教育國 際大會2014》所發表的專題演講而寫成。該會議的主題為「戲劇, 讓兒童享受夢想」,我選擇以兩個實例來探討該主題。我的意圖是 激發各人思考戲劇於兒童的社交、德育以及語文學習的特定貢獻方 式。文章並非在於窮舉方法,而是期望引發各人注意某些重要的考 量。具體來說,我希望集中於兒童喜愛和能力所及的戲劇和能夠促 使上述學習出現的、起關鍵角色的教學法。
關鍵詞:幼年,戲劇,美學的樂趣,莎士比亞,教育學
