2.3.8.5 Role play. In this technique the role of the researcher is that of
a co-communicator. The researcher divides the students into different groups.
In each group two students are selected for two different roles. Rest of the
students watch their performance and listen to their dialogues. Later on the
spectator students give them their feedback. This helps improve not only their
inter personal relations, but also they learn to work together. When the learners
are given feedback by their co-learners, they do not lose confidence rather they
feel motivated to do better and learn more .The students may be assigned roles
from different professions ,viz., doctor-patient , teacher-student, parent –
teacher (in a school meeting), boss and his subordinate in a meeting etc.
