Abstract:
This study presents the role of role-play in fostering oral expression. The study starts with
a theoretical overview of role-play, its importance, advantages, and limitations. After this
theoretical background, three practical samples of applying role-play in classrooms are
investigated in details, the studies were conducted in three different geographical contexts, and
on different levels of students. The study concludes with a comparison between these three
sample articles and their results on improving oral expressions.
Description
Role play emerges as a dynamic and invaluable asset within language education,
facilitating immersive learning experiences and fostering communicative proficiency among
learners. Its integration into pedagogical frameworks not only cultivates linguistic competence
but also nurtures critical socio-linguistic skills essential for real-world interactions. While
challenges such as logistical constraints and learner apprehensions persist, empirical studies
attest to the transformative potential of role play in enhancing language acquisition and fluency
across diverse learner demographics. Looking ahead, ongoing research endeavors and
pedagogical innovations hold promise for refining role play methodologies, thereby equipping
learners with the requisite linguistic dexterity to navigate multicultural communicative
landscapes adeptly. By embracing role play as a cornerstone of language pedagogy, educators
can empower learners to engage meaningfully in global discourse and realize their
communicative potential in an increasingly interconnected world.
