A theatrical exploration of SEN student experiences

28 August 2024

A drama workshop “Walking in Their Shoes: A Theatrical Exploration of SEN Student Experiences”, co-organised by the Student Affairs Office and the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL), was staged on 28 August 2024 as part of CTL’s “Teaching Excellence in the New Semester: Refresh, Recharge, and Renew” series. Presented by the AddOil Workshop, this theatrical exploration offered academic and administrative staff an insight into the world of students with Special Educational Needs (SEN).

Around 40 colleagues gathered to engage in a 90-minute theatrical exploration, stepping into the challenges and triumphs of SEN students through discussions and interactive role-playing. Selected participants actively shaped the workshop’s narrative, gaining firsthand understanding of the daily hurdles SEN students face. Empowered with practical strategies to support diverse learning needs, attendees left with a renewed commitment to foster inclusive educational environments.

The drama performance depicts the daily situation of SEN students.
