Abstract
The earthquake and the subsequent tsunami taking place in Japan on 11 March 2011 concerned Taiwanese society a lot. It prompted me to devise a drama lesson with this hot news as its pretext, so as to help the participants consider what one can do when an unexpected and inescapable calamity happens. Seeing that lesson planning, in addition to teaching tactics, is also a great challenge for drama teachers and worthy of study, this paper shares the thorough planning process of the above-mentioned drama lesson, particularly regarding the issues such as ethical concerns, artistic selection, and course structure.
