231130 Braving the Elements: Impro theatre as a medium for verbalizing your opinion (StGr) (SoSe 2025)

Contents, comment

This seminar is designed to train ourselves in forming opinions and verbalizing them in a professional and pedagogically appropriate manner. As primary source, we will discuss and use material from the 2000's pop culture phenomenon Avatar: The Last Airbender. At the end of each session, our group will reflect upon the experience and formulate impulses and ideas for our next meeting in a democratic manner. While we focus on methods that are used in theatre pedagogy, we are free to draw inspiration from different creative sources: art, dance, literature, music and whatever comes to mind that will be of benefit to us. By the end of the summer term, the group should have become acquainted with approaches and strategies regarding how to feel more comfortable forming and talking about an opinion in public.

The seminar is aimed at students in all the teaching (Lehramt) programmes, and we will be using secondary sources focusing on teaching and pedagogy. However, anyone who wants to participate is more than welcome!
