Abstract

The first part concern a definition of humor. In the second part, we search an appropriate response of this question: shall we use a humor and irony in the class? In the third part, we analyze the impact of humor and irony in education according to Deleuze, Ziv and Lethierry. After the examination of the different points in this field, we will define the most appropriate time of using humor in the class. Finally the effect of using humor and irony strategies will be examined carefully. It is thought that this research will be useful for the researchers on this area and promote them to search the role of humor in pedagogical efficacy.
