Mantle of the Expert is a method of education that is a version of the role-playing method: it is a collective role – professional - which is assigned to the students in order to increase motivation for active training and learning about a subject that is usually related to the specific area of life (Čubrilo i sur. 2017). This method was invented by the British drama teacher Dorothy Heathcote, who saw the problem of engaging students in the learning process while she was visiting and observing the schools in the UK. The students become experts in problem-solving tasks which are set up by the client, (from the methodological aspect - outcomes of the curriculum). This method finds its place within the framework of the problem-solving method, which is based on problem-solving. MoE is not based on dramatic plots, but on the agreement and conscious involvement in roles, bearing in mind throughout the process that the students and the teacher are part of the fiction. Creating problem-solving situations needs to be highly motivating for students who independently develop creative and critical thinking and, based on existing experience, come up with new insights, with a minor or greater degree of teacher intervention. The emphasis is not on the product of teaching, but on the process of acquisition. The student becomes an equal interlocutor in the educational process and the teacher becomes the organizer and the instructor during problem-solving. Teacher's role in the drama-method is very important, as the teacher creates problem-solving tasks and motivates students to independently approach the problem. A high degree of teacher competence and methodology is required in order for professional assignments to be creative and motivating for students. Due to its interdisciplinary and curricular integration, this method is adaptable to primary education, particularly in the third and fourth grades.
