What is the program?
The project will use a collaborative methodology to enable open exchange of role play designs, develop strategies for supporting new role play teachers and designers, and promote opportunities for cross-institutional and international teaching partnerships. Beginning with five NSW universities in Year 1, the project will support the formation of university-based clusters of online role play designers and build these into a state-based support network.
In Year 2, the project will cascade to another state in order to begin to develop a national community of practice and facilitate collaborations with key international links. The national network and international links will enable the project to extend a selected few Australian role plays into national and global ones and provide opportunities for teachers to have their students participate in a national or international role play without having to design their own role play first.
