Abstract	Part 2 of this five part project asks students of the Tasmanian region of Australia to explore the history of Port Arthur, a 19th century penal colony located in Tasmania. The project is based on three ideas: (1) studying history can be educational and enjoyable; (2) imagination is an essential part of studying history; and (3) history is most of all a means by which to seek to understand the present--one's self and society as it exists now. Part 2 of the project contains activities that primarily involve students in creative role play and dramatic re-enactment of events and people's lives at Port Arthur. The drama structures include: (1) bushrangers; (2) a colonial town; (3) Port Arthur society; (4) crime in the 19th century; (5) a court case; and (6) designing a prison. (DB)
