In today’s rapidly changing environment Shakespeare sounds outdated and irrelevant. Yet he has been in the school curriculum for a reason. The question on this occasion is not only “why” but “how”.
Teaching Shakespeare actively has developed as a pedagogy that has changed paradigms giving a new stance to the questions “why” and “how”.
In order to make Shakespeare accessible to students, it needs to unfold within a framework that will sustain it. Most important, it requires teachers that are willing to make changes.
This is not impossible, but it entails moving out of a comfort zone that contains and provides self-assurance, and becoming a teacher who helps students to search rather than follow.
Challenging and in many ways, frightening.
