Project description
Theatre activities have been shown to be of great help in the educational setting, and there are many reasons supporting their deployment in the language classroom. The most important function associated with drama is to foster speaking skills and overcome stage fright.
The “Fight the Fright” project proposes an innovative approach that uses the artistic disciplines of performance and storytelling to build a package of educational learning resources with key transversal competences in adults. In the pedagogical context, storytelling and acting are considered appropriate techniques in language learning, and in overcoming the obstacles of public speaking.
Project objectives

– Reinforce the introduction of theatrical techniques in the teaching and learning of key skills and competencies.
– Improve adult learning performance
– Increasing the employability and improving the career prospects of adult learners
– To modernize education and training provision for adult learners, but also to:
