The Social Learning Drama
Workshop is offered for adolescents (typically between
ages 14 and 18) with social learning difficulties,
such as Asperger’s Syndrome and similar differences
that affect peer relationships. The workshops will
draw from ImagineAct improvisational drama activities,
as well as cutting-edge social skill development interventions
designed to expand skills in verbal and non-verbal
communication, social understanding and flexible thinking.
Participants will be able to explore creative video
techniques to assist in understanding and communicating
through body language, movement, facial expression,
conversation structure, tone of voice, and so on, as
bridges to social and verbal interactions.
Transforming imagination into action, participants can
explore spontaneous responses and role-playing in a creative,
accepting, and safe space. The environment will be one
of trust and acceptance, with a clear focus on the motivational
power of playful engagement.
The workshops will be conducted by Carol Moog, PhD and
Eric Mitchell, Phd, and will run for 6 consecutive weekly
sessions on at Dr. Mitchell’s comfortable
home office,
in the Mount Airy section
of Philadelphia.
