Abstract :The current research employed a participatory drama workshop that toured 4 primary schools and 2 secondary schools in Muğla, Türkiye during the spring semester of the 2021-2022 school year. Targeting year 4 and year 5 students, the workshop was intended to raise awareness of social exclusion among students. The drama workshop was designed according to the theoretical framework and conventions known as creative drama in a way that a topic of interest is explored through playful procedures, role playing and reflection. This paper examines the strategies employed by the students in an enacted social exclusion situation. It was found that judgmental evaluative statements are used the most by the students along with other strategies and that an alarmingly high number of situations were not resolved peacefully. Results are discussed in relation to social information processing theory.Keywords : Yaratıcı drama, Akran zorbalığı, Sosyal dışlanma
