2.2 Role Playing Model Role Playing Model is an often opted for alternative to the aforementioned Value Clarification Model. This model demands much more active participation from students but, as we will see later in this paper, is considered to be more effective as well. Role Playing was formulated by Fannie and George Shaftel (1967). Some ideas have also been incorporated from the works of Mark Chesler and Robert Fox (1966). As given by Bruce Joyce, Role Playing helps students explore human relations- by enacting problems and then discussing the enactment, students together can explore feelings, values and problem-solving strategies. Role Playing as a model of teaching has roots in both personal and social dimensions of education. This helps individuals resolve personal dilemmas with the assistance of social groups. Regarding the social dimensions individuals work together and analyze social situations, with special reference to interpersonal problems. Herein, some students are given the part of role-players, while the rest are observers. Each person puts himself in the position of another person and then tries to interact with others who are playing roles. Doing so generates not just sympathy, but empathy. We learn to put ourselves in others’ shoes and consider problems with different perspectives.

What the.....????? Ten YEARS???? Where were the parents?? How is that not child abuse?? Why are all involved not in jail? if I was an adult that had attended that school, I'd be filing a lawsuit.
Clearly the only way forward is to remove all evidence of slavery from the history books, and certainly not teach kids about it and or how inhumane it was.
Putin has a similar strategy, he has rewritten the history books in Russia to show that Stalin's way was a good thing and beneficial for his citizens .....

Teaching about what happened does not require students to be treated as slaves themselves, bound and tossed into a dark room. If a parent did that, they'd be arrested for child abuse.

I agree with you there, somehow though there is a balance that can be found, kids need to learn and understand the mistakes, hardships and pains of the past, no matter how ugly it is.
I would like to see a similar position in the U.S that Germany has taken, educating its citizens on mistakes made to avoid a repeat.
