Summary

Role-play is a powerful learning strategy that promotes the learners to broaden their perspectives, especially in complex situations like classroom teaching. Using puppetry creates a psychological distance from the player's identity, and the players' anxiety for the evaluation apprehension is reduced. The case study of the puppetry role-play in microteaching shows that the players can play various roles as though in a realistic situation. The possibility of puppetry as a catalyst interface for face-to-face CSCL systems is discussed. ? ISLS.
