Types of role play
Multiple role play In this type of role play all trainees are in groups with each group acting out the role play simultaneously. After role play, each group analysis the interactions and identifies the learning point .
Single role play One group of participants at out the various roles for the rest providing demonstrations of the situations . Other participants observe the role play analyse their interactions with one another and learn from the Play .
Role rotation It starts as single role play after the interaction of participants the trainer will stop the role play and discuss what happened so far. Then the participants are asked to exchange characters this method allows a variety of w ays to approach thus the situations and carry out role.
Spontaneous role play In this kind of role play one of the trainees play herself why the other trainees play people with whom the first participant interacted before.
Purpose of role play To convey information To provide emotional and effective stimulus for solving problems To provide awareness about social and psychological issues. To prevent alternative courses of action
Cont.… To develop specific skills To develop a situation for analysis To develop understanding of a point of view of others
Principles of role play It should be based on realistic and life related problem rather than through hearing about such situation from others. Creating a teaching situation which can lead to the change of self concept requires a distinct organisational pattern.
Cont.….. Role play is flexible. Role play should be stimulant to thinking and should not be escaped from discipline of learning. There is no single method of selecting the character the group may assign the characters.
Cont.…. Role should be rehearsed to produce an effective outcome on the audience to help players interpret their roles. Analysis and evaluation are essential to attain maximum learning benefits. It should be brief.
PREPARATION AND CONDUCT A ROLE PLAY There are four main phases subdivided into smaller steps as explained below
STEPS TO CONDUCT ROLE PLAY
Role play encourages hands on training Role play adds variety reality and specificity to the learning experience It helps to develop problem solving and verbal expression of skills in students It enables brainstorming and team building ADVANTAGES OF ROLEPLAY
Cont.… It helps to enhance feeling of tolerance and empathy in students Role play provides practice to build skills before Real world application and when Real Experience are not readily available
CONT…. It enables a learners to experiment in a safe environment with behaviour which Strike them potentially useful and to identify behaviours which are not useful. It can provide an entirely new perspective of a situation and develop inside about feelings and relationships
Help the students Develop real communication skill in leadership interviewing and social interaction Obtain constructive feedback from Peers. Develop sensitivity to another’s feelings by having the opportunity to put oneself in another place
cont ... Develop skills in group problem solving Develop ability to observe and analyse situations Practice selected behaviour in the real life situation without making a mistake. A person is more apt to permit true feelings to be expressed when it is safe to do so.
Helps the teacher In this teaching learning situation, it provides opportunity to Notes the individual student needs by observing and analysing their needs simulated real life situation Assist the student in meeting needs by either giving her or encouraging group members to give her on the spot suggestion. Encouraged independent thinking Action by stepping aside on giving indirect guidance for the emphasis is on the students helping themselves
DISADVANTAGES OF ROLEPLAY Role playing is a means not an end. Used as an educational technique not as a therapeutic one) It requires expert guidance and leadership Sometimes participants may feel threatened
Cont.… Strongly depend on student imagination Time consuming in developing group readiness should not be used when pressure of time is present Limited only by teacher’s ingenuity and realistic use Limited to small groups
Cont.… Can be embarrassing for the students who lacks spontaneity and acting skills Effective only when learners have adequate knowledge and s kills to perform what is required Can be a tendency by some participants to overly exaggerate their assigned roles

Cont.… Role playing situations may extend to several time the length of the situation itself Sometimes extremely beneficial result arise. At another time if anybody cannot perform well it is due to superficial rehash of what everyone already knows about the problem If the relationship between the players is not good then this will put negative effect on success of the play
Values of role playing It is enjoyed by people who do it It is a method to involve a group through participation It can bring out data about human behaviour and human relation which are not made available by more traditional methods The individual may develop new skill for dealing with problems in human relationships
Points to Remember There should never be one answer to a situation presented The time of play should be brief Enough time should be allowed for discussion and analysis of the situation Evaluation concerns the teacher and the participants through discussion or follow up as to specific individual behaviour or sequential of group action

JOURNAL REVIEW The effect of an empathy role-play program for operating room nursing students Purpose: The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of a role-playing training program for empathetic communication with patients on empathy scores of operating room nursing students. Methods: This clinical trial was carried out on 77 operating room nursing students from the first to the fourth years studied in the School of Nursing and Midwifery at Isfahan University of Medical Sciences in the academic year 2017-2018. The intervention administered on the experimental group included a 12-hour training program with the theme of expressing empathy to patients using a role-playing technique. The Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Health Profession Students' Version was completed before, immediately after, and one month after the intervention by the samples. Comparison analysis was done among three stages. Results: Comparing the total mean empathy scores before intervention in the control group and the experimental one did not reveal a significant difference (P=0.50); however, the total mean empathy scores in the experimental group, immediately after and one month after the intervention, was higher than that in the control group (P<0.001).
