Calling all teachers, technologists and educational researchers!
You are warmly invited to the launch of a new book about storytelling, education and technology: "Inside Stories: A Narrative Journey" by Judy Robertson, Lisa Gjedde, Ruth Aylett, Rose Luckin and Paul Brna. The event will take place on Wednesday 28th January at 5pm at the Institute of Education Book Shop.
About the book - Five travellers meet on a train: a teacher, a technologist, an educational researcher and two children. As they travel across the continent towards the Future of Learning conference, they exchange their stories. This book explores the ways in which new technology can support storytelling skills in learners. Written in the form of discussions between teachers, learners and researchers, it is an accessible introduction to issues in educational storytelling and technology.
"A challengingly thoughtful book about narrative, daringly written in the narrative form. Bravo!" Jerome Bruner, New York University.
"This is the perfect introduction to the possibilities of narrative learning...I warmly recommend Inside Stories: A Narrative Journey to creative educators of every variety." Dr Donald Smith, Director of the Scottish Storytelling Centre
