Abstract
Role-play is used in various contexts and in various ways, the most effective in the foreign classroom being simultaneous pair or group work, spontaneous and unstructured, focusing on conflict situations of real concern to the learners. A research project, carried out in Israeli schools, has demonstrated the beneficial effect of such role-play on the motivation and the communicative competence of the learners. The experience gained enables us to suggest how role-playing can best be implemented as a regular component of the programme. Pre-requisites and limitations as well as the beneficial effects are discussed, with emphasis being placed on its potential educational value.
