The Drama in Education Focus is an exploration of the exciting possibilities for incorporating dramatic experiences into the school curriculum, including the teaching of drama as an art form, the integration of drama into other aspects of the curriculum, and the performing of original works of theatre for young audiences. The PRAC 450/451 placement may be in a regular classroom, a specialized drama education program, or an alternative setting such as museum or theatre outreach program. It is also possible for several members of this focus to work together during the alternative practicum, presenting workshops or performances in schools.
