THE ROLE AND IMPORTANCE OF DRAMA METHOD IN THE EDUCATION PROCESS

Education is the factor that changes people, improves and socialize them. By the help of education, a person can be useful for him/herself, his/her nation and world people. Researches about education today show that teaching can reach to the top level with the individual’s effective participation. Individual’s effective participation to learning means all of his senses’ participation to learning period. Individual doesn’t forget the knowledge gained by experience and can transfer them to other knowledge gained. When considered our education system on the basis of programmes, methods and physical conditions, student is passive. This causes student to be one who memorizes. Because of this we urgently have to give up the education system that makes students memorise and individuals who uses the knowledge throughout life, who analysizes and synthesizes should be grown up. And drama method is one of the most important methods of active learning.
