Stories as a vehicle for learning

Hi,

My last three pieces of work have been designed around stories that put the learner at the heart of decision making to shape the learning journey and make decisions that influence outcomes for the characters in the stories. It works particularly well when there is a need for the learner to understand and navigate both process and manage the emotional reactions of the characters they engage with. I found this free story telling resource for those who are interested in this approach from Pixar/Khan academy. Good stuff.

Enjoy.

    • Interesting for me on 2 levels, the power of the language used in the boat scenario really impactful! The simplicity of the methods in the slavery story to focus my attention with the hands/objects that place the sentences before me and the fonts. I thought I did this well and realise that I have a lot to learn. Thanks for sharing  Mike

    Stories are hugely important (remember our improv stories lol)
