THEATRICAL PRACTICES TO PROMOTE RELATIONSHIPS IN A DIGITAL SOCIETY: NEW PERSPECTIVES IN EDUCATION

Valeria Vadalà, Ettore Melchionna, Nadia Carlomagno

Abstract


AI in education enables personalized learning paths but cannot replicate key aspects of the human experience. Pedagogical research highlights the importance of interaction and emotional engagement in the learning process. Theatre, as an educational tool, draws on the Embodied Mind theory to enhance the bodily and relational dimensions of learning. This study analyzes the impact of theatrical practices in teaching, fostering creative and artistic-expressive skills, emotional regulation, and relational competencies.
