Role Playing
Role-plays involve the
spontaneous acting-out of a situation or incident
to portray a problem that is common to group members or to give a common background to group members. Trainees act as though they are involved in a real-life situation. Role-plays are designed to help trainees understand the perspectives and feelings of other people in a wide range of work-related issues. Role-plays tend to have one main activity. They have a narrowly defined focus and deal with immediate issues and consequences.
Types of Role Plays
1. Standard Role Plays
•
Permit trainees to re-enact situations that they face on the job or in the future.
2. Reverse Role Plays
•
Are helpful for understanding another person’s viewpoint. At a critical time in the role-play, the participants switch roles (e.g., the supervisor becomes the supervised and will gain insights into what it feels like to be in that situation.
3. Doubling Role Plays
•
Let observers get into the action when they feel moved to do so. They simply step behind the current player and become another character.
