Teaching Insights: Using stories to engage students: the power of personal narrative In-Person
“ Students listen to one another’s stories with an intensity that is not always present during a lecture or class discussion. One of the ways we become a learning community is by sharing and receiving one another’s stories; it is a ritual of communion that opens our minds and hearts.” hooks, b. (2009) Teaching Critical Thinking: Practical Wisdom. New York: Taylor & Francis Group.
In this seminar, I will look at two research projects that use storytelling, their impact, and explore the ways in which stories can be used in the creation of a learning community.
This event will be held in SLB Rm 207.
Hosted by the Teaching and Learning Academy, this event is part of the Teaching Insights series and will be led by Sarah Maclennan, Programme Leader Creative Writing, Liverpool Screen School, Faculty Associate Dean (Education and Student Experience)
