Dramatic Engagers™

Dramatic Engagers are strategies that require each participant to be involved in the learning of content. Instead of traditional lecturing, they directly help teachers and trainers increase both attention and participation by focusing on brain-based learning, which provide opportunities for the brain to process and to retain the information. Although traditional classroom teaching captures the minds and attention of some students, good teachers engage and incorporate different strategies to reach all learning styles. Therefore, with Dramatic Engagers, participants perform and practice what they learn through active and collaborative activities and interactive drama techniques. This makes learning fun, which helps your learner reflect, recall, and retain the information. When students are engaged and feel safe, they pay attention, they are motivated, they learn more, and the learning sticks.
