Discover how storytelling in teaching can transform your course syllabus into a guide that engages students, builds context, and creates a more meaningful learning experience.
Preparing a syllabus to tell a story implies that:
The course description must set the tone for the overview of the story of your course.
The objectives must present characters, both literal and metaphorical, that will be present to guide the learning experience.
As well as expose the solution that your students must overcome with the knowledge they will receive.
The topics are to present the settings, set backs, and how to manage the plot.
The assessments and requirements will serve as the voice of the story, where the professor and students will be guided to discern continuously to give life, action, and solution to the conflict, in the particular setting.
The references and institutional guidelines, instead of serving as page expansions, should serve as the relationship dynamic between all of the contexts and characters that will develop and wait for a solution."
