TAR (Theatre as Representation) as a Provocative Teaching Tool in School Administration: A Dramatized Inclusive Classroom Scenario
Meyer, Matthew J.; Young, David C.
Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, n142 p69-89 Jul 2013
The following dramatized classroom scenario depicts a teacher struggling with the nature of an inclusive learning environment, with instructional leadership and supervision of instruction as the theoretical and practical backdrop. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how the use of a TAR (theatre as representation) case study can be used as a provocative teaching tool by those engaged in the professional development of in-service administrators, aspiring administrators, and students enrolled in a graduate level educational administration program. In addition to the scenario's text, teaching notes in the form of discussion questions, complete with accompanying rationales, are provided.
