Sirke Seppänen is a drama teacher, PhD, with over 20 years of experience in the performing arts. As a drama teacher, her interests lie in experiential learning and the biosignals of social interactions. Her research projects introduce a novel angle to drama education research through our constantly reshaping, learning and highly social brain. Specifically, she investigates the psychophysiology of social interactions as well as the effects of theatre improvisation training in relieving social stress. Her cross-disciplinary approach aims at achieving a holistic understanding of experiential learning by combining subjective and objective data.
