« Playing roles: what are the stakes in LSP / LAP? »
In his work entitled L’anthropologie du geste, Marcel Jousse describes man as an interactional mimic
([1974] 2008) who cannot but replay the actions he sees around himself, actions which imprint upon him
and which he expresses through replaying them. Man thus constructs his identity, his role by replaying the
actions he sees around him. Playing roles allows him to “become the other” and by so doing, to understand
and memorise better (Lecoq 1997). As a result, the act of playing (and replaying) a role allows the
acquisition of skills and knowledge by bonding with others, because playing requires recognising and
adapting to the other’s needs. Finally, playing is a creative process, because replaying is never a simple
repetition or holding up of a mirror, but it is a personal and dynamic reaction. It is not a case of a figurative
representation of that which we observe and replay, but an acting out of its essence a dynamic activity.
In this way, playing roles can be a fun an entertaining activity which we could encourage our students to
engage in in order to motivate them; it remains however a behaviour which is innate, which is “profoundly
anthropological” (ibid). In a similar vein, Berthoz considers that there can be no learning without action
because “the origin of thought resides in the necessity of movement” (2009). Other researchers in
neuroscience have underlined the importance of the body in learning, such as Rizzolatti, who suggests the
existence of mirror neurons which allow us to unconsciously imitate the actions of others.
The links between play and learning are numerous - both are eminently social phenomena which re-place
the individual in his or her environment. They allow the re-presentation of his or her identity and reinforce
the role of the body in understanding others. Play remains marginalised however in the language classroom
(Lapaire & Masse 2008; Aden 2008). How, under these conditions, should we envisage teaching & learning
LSP / LAP so as to give playing its due? This is the question which we will try to address at the next
APLIUT conference in Lyon. The notion of playing roles can be approached from a number of angles
(theatre, strategy games, video games, physical games, etc.) as well as its implications in terms of teaching
and leanrning languages (motivation, pleasure, autonomy, memorisation, etc.)
