| Summary: | Abstract With the introduction of the teaching plan Lpo94 and the others, many of the rules that restricted the teacher to just a few didactical methods disappeared. The former strict ruling system changed to a more free goal-oriented system. That and the fact that the governmental ruled shifted from a top down to a bottom up perspective gave the schools the freedom to choose whatever material and methods they would want, as long as the goals could be attained. This freedom allowed the employment of many new didactical methods. All these new methods had “activity” as their main asset. One such method that followed in this wake is “Shakespeare as a second language”, developed and created by Donya Feuer and Ted Hughes. The main objective with this essay is to introduce this method to the readers as well as introduce it in relation with literature in the field of alternative methods and the teaching and course plans of today. My intention is to let it go through some critical evaluation and see if it fits to be employed as a didactical method in the school of today.
