Games, simulations and role-playing

The first chapter briefly defines ‘games’ and ‘simulations’ in the ELT context and offers advice regarding elements necessary in the design and management of such activities. Three further authors then discuss the value of various activities in some detail – simulations, role plays and dramatic techniques – ranging from those focused on controlled language practice to those offering freer practice. In the Postscript there is further commentary on definitions and the value of different approaches.
