摘要 This paper introduces a sequence of various techniques and approaches the author has developed to help students develop communicative ability beyond the structured dialog model through the use of Interactive Dramas. Pointers toward resources for the key principles behind sound scenario development and the theoretical basis of the activity is provided within the descriptive framework of the activity. The author uses a graded stage approach whereby students begin with a simple highly structured model activity followed by more difficult and/or freeform activities that culminate in the Interactive Drama Project in which students create their own Interactive Drama scenarios for their classmates to play. Interactive Dramas are similar to traditional role plays as well as to micro-simulations. In the activity, students are assigned characters to role play from a scenario. They are usually given a goal to accomplish, such as find a killer in the whodunit variety which works very well for beginner to intermediate conversation classes. Through structured and freeform conversations with the other players (usually in small groups), the students either exchange clues about the crime they are all trying to solve or information related to achieving their other character goals.
