Description
The project aims to explore new ways of teaching through theater and, at the same time, new ways of conceiving theater through education. Through theatrical activities, it seeks to create a pedagogical research laboratory with teachers and theater trainers, while also fostering a community that recognizes the importance of theater as a place for learning and active citizenship. Engaging in theater and experiencing theater go hand in hand in teacher training and classroom work. The Socratic and metacognitive approach allows both actions to create inclusive and interdisciplinary learning environments.
