Drama and Art Lab

Art Integrated Learning (AIL) is a teaching-learning model which is based on learning ‘through the arts’ and ‘with the arts’: it is a process where art becomes the medium of teaching-learning, a key to understanding concepts within any subject of the curriculum. In our college learners explore creatively while building connections between different concepts through various art forms. Art experiences, both in visual (drawing and painting, clay modelling, pottery, paper crafts, mask and puppet making, heritage crafts etc.) and performing arts (music, dance, theatre, puppetry etc.) lead to a better understanding and construction of knowledge about different concepts. Arts have the flexibility to accommodate age-appropriate opportunities for learners who can explore at their individual pace. This resonates with the experiential learning approach. Drama is essential components of holistic education,offer unique ways to engage students. Drama provides a platform for students to explore and express their thoughts,emotions and ideas. Role playing, improvisation and theatre ensures teamwork, problem solving and empathy by helping students stop into others’ perspective. Drama also enhanced confidence, verbal communication and creativity, making it valuable tool in teaching not only language and literature but also social science and life skills. Some essential materials that are needed for a productive drama lab are comfortable seating and tables for students to work on scripts and discuss scenes, flexible performance space, adequate storage for drama equipment, costumes and props, stage lighting (e.g. spotlights, dimmer switches), sound system (e.g.speakers, microphone, sound effects,voiceover), special effects equipment,Stage props, costumes construction equipment, makeup station, reference materials, first aid kits, safety harness, sound recording equipments and whiteboard and blackboard, projection setup and draps etc.
