Hands-On #1: Technique on Combining Factual Content with Stories

How do you make sure that when using stories in your lesson, you still drill down to the details of the content?

One of the most challenging tasks in Story-Based Learning Design is combining facts within the story.

This WOW series explains an actual demo on a technical production content and how characters have a conversation.

Key ideas to remember:
  1. Use an event with characters having conversations.
  2. Discuss the factual content, like statistics and data, that are relevant to the story.
  3. Never insert a fact if it is not within the context of the story.
  4. Add more facts as references to support the information used within the story.
