Theatre workshops based on verbal and non-verbal communication skills, August 27th 2020

François intervened during the Bioceb induction week in two online workshops with 10-15 students each. Based on verbal and non-verbal communication, the workshops contributed to breaking the ice between the foreign students, getting them to experience playful theatre group exercises (to which Bioceb coordinators also took part !). Here are some examples of exercises:
–  Games of personal introduction to the group
–  Relationship-based exercises using imaginary objects
–  Voice and speech exercises
–  Exercises for the expression of various emotions with and without verbalization

Second Theatre workshops’ session, 20th November 2020

The Bioceb students also enjoyed the second theatre workshops’ session organised online during the first Semester at Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne (URCA). Conducted by theatre teacher François Pick, the workshops focused on interactive theatre games and improvisations in order to improve students’ expression of emotions, group cohesion, active listening and adaptability to different audiences (scientific experts, farmers, consumers etc…).
