- 2. Role play is a simulation in which each pa Role play is a simulation in which each participant is given a role to play. Trainees are given with some information related to description of the role, concerns, objectives, responsibilities, emotions, etc. Then, a general description of the situation, and the problem that each one of them faces, is given.
- 3. For instance, situation could be strike in factory, managing conflict, two parties in conflict, scheduling vacation days, etc. Once the participants read their role descriptions, they act out their roles by interacting with one another.
- 4. Role Plays helps in · Developing interpersonal skills and communication skills· Conflict resolution· Group decision making Developing insight into one’s own behavior and its impact on others
- 5. There are various types of role plays, such as: Multiple Role Play – In this type of roleplay, all trainees are in groups, with each group acting out the role play simultaneously. After the role play, each group analyzes the interactions and identifies the learning points. Single Role Play – One group of participants plays the role for the rest, providing demonstrations of situation. Other participants observe the role play, analyze their interactions with one another and learn from the play.
- 6. Role Rotation – It starts as a single role play. After the interaction of participants, the trainer will stop the role play and discuss what happened so far. Then the participants are asked to exchange characters. This method allows a variety of ways to approach the roles. Spontaneous Role Play – In this kind of role play, one of the trainees plays herself while the other trainees play people with whom the first participant interacted before.
- 7. ROLE PLAYING• Ask for volunteers from the group to participate in a role playing exercise .• Use one of the case studies as the “script” for the role playing exercise.• Assign parts, and supply a few simple props to increase realism.• Allow each volunteer to briefly review their part, then start the role playing exercise in front of the entire group.
- 8. • Only allow the role playing session to run about 3 to 5 minutes, and then thank all the participants.• After the role playing session is over explain to the group: “Role playing can add new perspectives and reveal interesting dynamics as the participants act out a simulated confrontation. Now we will examine the Role Playing method further.”•Display the opening slide of the Role Playing segment.
- 9. ROLE PLAYING PROS & CONSADVANTAGES:• Role playing is an excellent forum for exploring the topics of ethics and conflict resolution.• Participants can “feel a new viewpoint” through dynamic role playing.• Individuals are often inclined to express true feelings when role playing.• The group listens better and learns more because they are seeing and hearing the subject matter as it is acted out.
- 10. DRAWBACKS:• Role playing requires careful selection of situations to be effective.• Role playing impedes free expression if participants are not volunteers• The themes for role playing exercises must avoid potential conflicts with the principles of the Scout Oath/Law, religious teaching, or other groups.

21 - Role-playing
Role-playing
refers to the changing of one's behaviour to assume a role,
either unconsciously to fill a social role, or consciously to act out
an adopted role. While the Oxford English Dictionary
offers a definition of role-playing as "the changing of one's behaviour to
fulfill a social role",[1]
in the field of psychology, the term is used more loosely in four senses:
- To refer to the playing of roles generally such as in a theatre, or educational setting;
- To refer to taking a role of an existing character or person and acting it out with a partner taking someone else's role, often involving different genres of practice;
- To refer to a wide range of games including role-playing video game, play-by-mail games and more;
- To refer specifically to role-playing games.[
Amusement
Many children
participate in a form of role-playing known as make
believe, wherein they adopt certain roles such as doctor
and act out those roles in character. Sometimes make believe adopts an
oppositional nature, resulting in games such as cops
and robbers.
Entertainment
Historical re-enactment
has been practised by adults for millennia. The ancient Romans, Han Chinese,
and medieval Europeans all enjoyed occasionally organising events in which
everyone pretended to be from an earlier age, and entertainment appears to have
been the primary purpose of these activities. Within the 20th century
historical re-enactment has often been pursued as a hobby.
Improvisational theatre
dates back to the Commedia dell'Arte
tradition of the 16th century. Modern improvisational theatre began in the
classroom with the "theatre
games" of Viola
Spolin and Keith
Johnstone in the 1950s. Viola Spolin, who was one of the
founders the famous comedy troupe Second
City, insisted that her exercises were games, and
that they involved role-playing as early as 1946. She accurately judged
role-playing in the theatre as rehearsal and actor training, or the playing of
the role of actor
versus theatre roles, but many now
use her games for fun in their own right.
Role-playing games
A role-playing game is
a game
in which the participants assume the roles of characters and collaboratively
create stories.
Participants determine the actions of their characters based on their characterisation,
and the actions succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and
guidelines. Within the rules, they may improvise
freely; their choices shape the direction and outcome of the games.
Role-playing can also
be done online in the form of group story creation, involving anywhere from two
to several hundred people, utilizing public forums, private message boards,
mailing lists, chatrooms, and instant-messaging chat clients (e.g., MSN,
Yahoo!,
ICQ)
to build worlds and characters that may last a few hours, or several years.
Message boards such as ProBoards and InvisionFree
are popularly used for role-playing. Often on forum-based roleplays, rules, and
standards are set up, such as a minimum word count, character applications, and
"plotting" boards to increase complexity and depth of story.
There are different
genres of which one can choose while role-playing, including, but not limited
to, fantasy, modern, medieval, steam
punk, and historical. Books, movies, or games can
be, and often are, used as a basis for role-plays (which in such cases may be
deemed "collaborative fan-fiction"), with players either assuming the
roles of established canon
characters or using those the players themselves create ("Original
Characters") to replace—or exist alongside—characters from the book,
movie, or game, playing through well-trodden plots as alternative
characters, or expanding upon the setting and story outside of its established
canon.
Training
Role-playing may also
refer to role training where people rehearse
situations in preparation for a future performance and to improve their
abilities within a role. The most common examples are occupational training role-plays,
educational role-play exercises, and certain military wargames.
Simulation
One of the first uses
of computers was to simulate reality around its participants in order to
role-play the flying of aircraft. As early as the 1940s, flight
simulators used computers to solve the equations of flight
and train future pilots. After World
War II the army began full-time role-playing simulations
with soldiers using computers both within full scale training exercises
and for training in numerous specific tasks under wartime conditions. Examples
include weapon firing, vehicle simulators, and control station mock-ups.

Role plays are an excellent way of getting your students to practise their English. They simulate real life situations and allow them to act out what they would do in a real situation.
There are two ways a role play can go: scripted and non-scripted. With a scripted role play, the teacher might use an example in a text book. This is a good idea for a warm up exercise, by getting everyone to split up into pairs and allow them to speak to their partner, taking on different roles. Non-scripted ones are when students are given a role each and must use whatever knowledge they have in order to speak with that partner. Below is a list of ideas for a general English class. This can be adapted to suit a situation.21 - Try These Fresh Role Play Activities With Your Class
Telephone
Conversation
Speaking on the phone
is different to a face-to-face conversation because one relies solely on language
to communicate. Get the students who are practicing to sit back to back in order
for this to work properly. There is a whole range of ideas which one can use to
act this out. Examples include: phoning
to make a complaint, speaking
to a friend or inquiring
about a job position.
Going to the
Shop
A great one for
younger learners as it will teach them the basics of interacting with people.
Children generally rely on their parents to buy things for them, therefore this
will boost their overall general confidence in buying. It can be as simple or
as complex as one wishes, depending on the situation. Key phrases are often
important here, such as “I
would like…” “How
much are…” “Good
morning…” and so forth.
Booking a Hotel
This will allow
students to practise a specific type of language. Usually this will be formal
language as it is a business conversation. This can also be done in the format
of a telephone conversation, or it could be someone approaching a text. There
is a wide range of opportunity here for the students to learn new forms of vocabulary.
Sharing
Opinions
Choose a topic that
everyone appears to be interested in. Get the students to pair up and give them
a list of questions to follow (for example, see our ‘130
Topics for Discussion (more than 2000 questions) For Any Level’).
This will allow them to come up with their own phrases and use language in a
much more practical way.
Job Interview
Work is usually a good
topic to begin with when teaching
adults. Many are learning English in order to improve
their career prospects. As a result, a
job interview role play is an excellent way to get the class learning that all
important material. Again, this can be scripted or non-scripted. A good idea
would be to have the interviewer have a list of set questions, and the students
can take it from there.
Getting
Everyone to Speak
A traditional method
is to ask the class to pair off. Of course, one cannot monitor every student
particularly if the class is quite large. Therefore, it is important to make
sure everyone is speaking and getting the most out of the language they know.
If one has time, have each
individual group come up to the top of the class and speak in front of everyone
else. This will allow people to use their language more
creatively.
Argument
Between Neighbours
Again, this is a new
opportunity for learning different types of vocabulary. This could be between
two neighbours who are having an argument. Perhaps one plays music too loudly in the middle of the night
and is disturbing the rest of the apartment block. This can be as absurd or
ridiculous as the students’ want, as long as they are speaking and using the
language correctly. Some of the situations thought up can be quite amusing. See
some suggested situations here: “Neighbour
Problems Role Play”.
Body Language
Body language is just
as important as spoken language, so in their role plays try and let the students
get into the role. Of course, one does not have to be an expert at acting but
it is important for them to get a feel of the flow of the conversation. Using body language effectively
will allow them to become a lot more in tune with the language they are using.
Debate
Debates
are a brilliant way of encouraging language use. This is because they can
become somewhat heated,
and many new words can come up. It is important to choose a topic which might
not be too controversial to some students. Remember to be sensitive to their
age group and the general attitude of the particular country. Divide the class
into two sides and give them each a side of an argument to defend.
Have Fun
When it comes to role
plays, it is all about the creative use of language.
The student must put what they know to the test. This doesn’t mean they have to
list off a boring dialogue. Allow
them to be as creative as they can. Put them into challenging
situations, and this will allow them to think of new ways of saying things.
Role plays can work as a great ice breaker for the beginning of the class.
Always remember to be
sensitive to any particular issues at the time, however, and be wary of the
students’ age. Usually, the likes of filing
a complaint will not really be of interest to children. Once the
students are having fun and speaking English, there are no limits to their own
learning!
