Storytelling for Learning: Increase Motivation, Deepen Understand, Enhance Retention and Build Connection

Kat

Kat Koppett

Storytelling, the ancient communication method, taps into the fundamental way our brain makes meaning and helps us understand new concepts, engage deeply, tap into our passion, and connect with others. In this active, practical session, you will unpack the building blocks of great storytelling to make this innate, unconscious meaning-making process conscious in order to:

  • Harness the power of story to strengthen key learning points, making them more comprehensible and memorable 

  • Align the story you mean to be telling with the story your learners are receiving

  • Recognize your individual storytelling strengths and habits

  • Expand your storytelling range

In addition we will explore:

  • How to solicit stories from participants

  • How to use story activities and structures to enhance skills development, problem-solving and action-planning

Embark on this journey with us and leave with a fully crafted story of your own and a storytelling toolkit to apply in learning environments and beyond.
