Education
Playback practitioners use the method in schools to address curriculum (students tell stories of characters in literature or social studies, and enact their stories); literacy (students tell stories from their lives and are motivated to write them down); and social issues such as bullying (students tell stories about their experiences in relation to bullying and explore ways to create a respectful and safe school environment). Playback is used both by classroom teachers and by visiting performers/leaders.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“I prefer to finish my education at a different school.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... all education must be unsound which does not propose for itself some object; and the highest of all objects must be that of living a life in accordance with God’s Will.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best education of all. If a man carries many such memories into life with him, he is saved for the rest of his days. And even if only one good memory is left in our hearts, it may also be the instrument of our salvation one day.”
—Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)
