Summary of Project Findings.

The project I researched was: The Effects of Drama in Education on a Drama Student. The Impact of Social and Personal Growth.
The main aim of my project was to discover if students enhanced their social education as apposed to those students who chose not to study drama. The results clearly showed that drama benefited a students student social skills their response to real life situations and their interpretation of cultural understandings. It was found that the elements cover in drama education created a deeper understanding in student relationships, actions and opinions. They had a broader social outlook; however research showed that it did not necessarily promote students self esteem. Hopefully, this will develop deeper understandings of the importance of drama education on a students future.
