The Ultimate Guide To Storytelling Janey Foushee

Storytelling is a means for sharing and interpreting experiences. ... Storytelling can be used as a method to teach ethics, values, and cultural norms, and differences. Learning is most effective when it takes place in social environments that provide authentic social cues about how knowledge is to be applied.
Stories not only touch lives, but they also move people to act. Imagine this very real scenario - you are asked to give a speech on your best work, after weeks of preparation, the big day finally arrives. As you stand up to speak, words fail you and it seems as if the entire world is against you. You pray for the ground to open so you can quickly disappear inside and yet (fortunately, I should add) nothing happens.
