stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026#LTHEChat Stories are one of the oldest research tools known to man/woman and the most prominent data collection tool in qualitative research. 141
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026A5 #LTHEchat Business case studies are a great storytelling resource. In Business you need a great story to make a memorable pitch to customers! 041
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026A6 #LTHEChat I have conducted empirical research which shows the impact of using storytelling with trainee teachers and how it is great for developing employability skills. Will post when it is published! 041
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Show and tell stories are a great ice breaker and you can learn lots about your students' lives. 110
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I have built a research paper out of analysing trainee teachers' story artefacts of their journeys on teachertraining courses. 010
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Stories can help our students organise and articulate complex experiences into a sequence of events, make sense of relationships, explore tensions, and decide on outcomes as a result. 120
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I agree Louise, you need to follow up post story or even during story with prompt questions to elicit the meaning and impact of what happened. 020
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026What I found in my research is that once you a share a story, you will receive one in return as part a natural process. 010
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I totally agree Martin - it is an innate skill which all teachers use without thinking about! 000
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026This is because storytelling is an innate skill that all learners are familiar with and can use naturally. 100
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026In teacher training we use it to share our experiences of teaching practice in a specialist area of teaching 010
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Sue it is a great tool for sharing the triumphs and disasters of teaching practice! 010
stelfer.bsky.social @stelfer.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I believe that at its strongest, storytelling moves reflection beyond simple description of 'what happened' into meaning-making 'why it mattered'. It is great for developing reflection on professional practice, where experience, identity, emotion, and context shape decision-making. 020
