Storytelling
Elements of a good story
Topics (selection)
Course Description
Humans are wired to respond to narratives. Just because scientific research and concepts are rooted in data and experimental results, doesn’t mean they lack engaging stories. In this workshop we’ll discuss the elements of a good story, explore examples of science storytelling and discuss how to use these ideas to not only entertain but also inform. Participants will be asked to look at their own research and/or previous outreach efforts and in order to find the interesting narratives, characters and stories within.
Organisational requirements
The seminar is offered as a 4 or 8 hour online or in person course. The thematic focus will be agreed upon individually in each case.
This workshop is available in German as well as English. The number of participants is limited to 12.
