| Abstract | "Humanizing Education with Dramatic Inquiry provides a comprehensive rationale for why and how dramatic inquiry can be used by teachers of all levels to humanize both classroom communities and the subject areas being taught. Written by teacher educators Brian Edmiston and Iona Towler-Evans, the book re-evaluates the radical humanizing dramatic inquiry pedagogy of British educator Dorothy Heathcote, as developed by the authors through scholarly analysis of examples drawn from their own classroom teaching. Drawing from Heathcote's approaches of Process Drama, Mantle of the Expert, and the Commission Model, as well as featuring timely acknowledgement of the book's contemporary environment regarding anti-racist education efforts, the book offers a scholarly yet practical analysis of the authors' work in both US and UK classrooms with students of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. Ultimately, the volume demonstrates how teachers can collaborate with students to transform classroom life into a richly humanizing, curious, and inclusive community, and will interest educators and teacher educators involved with drama pedagogies, drama therapy, and language arts more broadly"-- Provided by publisher. |
