Teaching and learning geometry in drama based instruction
Journal Title: European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper explains what drama-based instruction is and offers insights into the phases in drama-based instruction. Further, examples of drama-based lessons in geometry related to ring and circle, and altitude of a triangle together with the teacher and students perceptions related to the strengths and limitations of drama based instruction in geometry were presented.
