We do it everyday. Constructing narratives is the core of teaching from planning course structure to implementing individual activities. Storytelling preserves knowledge that other genres do not, yet is barely understood as an effective teaching technique.

This workshop will:

• Push beyond examples and case studies
• Enhance teaching techniques
• Enable lecture flow
• Increase student interest and communication
• Promote memory retention
• Explore role-playing

Space is limited
