playlet


a playlet is a mini-play, usually less than three or four minutes in duration, that helps students learn about a subject by watching characters perform real life simulations. scripts are usually less than 500 words and the playlets can be performed by three or, at most four, actors.
“you know last month i was trying to teach my entrepreneurship students about bootstrap capital (self-capitalization) and i wasn’t sure that i was really getting through to them all. so i got a few students together and we wrote, acted and filmed five playlets on the subject. we put each playlet up on youtube and, lo and behold, when we showed them in cl-ss this week, there were quite a few ‘ah ha’ moments amongst the students. it seems that video and play acting real life situations got the message through in a way that really clicked.”
