【 摘 要 】

Prosody, the structures governing the pitch and rhythm of speech, is essential to the correct and authentic use of a language.Unfortunately, many students of a second language find it difficult to learn these patterns, particularly when they differ significantly from their mother tongue.Several pedagogical models are now widely used, but only within the confines of a conventional classroom environment.Dramatisation, the process of preparing a full theatrical performance, has already shown itself to be useful in the acquisition of second language grammar and vocabulary.This thesis demonstrates by means of a qualitative case study that this approach to language teaching also results in a statistically significant improvement in the area of prosody.The results were obtained by analysing the digitised speech of four students who participated in a course employing dramatisation in order to teach French as a second language.
