"I hear and I
forget. I see and I remember. I do and
I understand."
-Confucius
When
addressing sensitive topics it is usually not enough to simply tell the
audience the information that we want them to know. If we really
want to impact our audience we must show them something that's
memorable, and then give them the opportunity to become involved in the
program. Peer
Improvisational Performance Education is an interactive method of
encouraging student audience members to explore issues such as bullying,
harassment, and related violence in a safe environment. Through
improvisational acting techniques and facilitated discussion,
participants are given the opportunity to see scenes of bullying and
harassment, and then try out different methods for intervening.
Participants leave programs with tangible skills that they can use in
their daily lives.
