Integration of ICT, Drama, and Language for Development of Children's Communicative Competence: Case Study in a Primary School

The paper addresses the issue of unusual ICT tool application in the development of communicative competences during drama classes. It also presents the practical implementation of a case study method with the application of ICT tools. The case method was used for an interesting combination of acquiring communicative competences including drama skills by means of applying modern computer software. The target group was the 3rd form pupils of Klaipeda primary school. The activities planned to cover skills of language, drama and ICT.The significance of the presented case is based on the following: pupils' communicative skills are improved; learning is based on the integration of inherently different subjects, such as drama, language and ICT; skills of the three subjects are educated in a creative way. ICT can act as a promoter of educational change only if learners and teachers have an access to the new technology and it is intensively used as a tool for learning in various subject domains.
