Training Course
22-29 August 2015 | Sermugnano, Castiglione in Teverina (VT), Italy
Are you passionate about stories? Are you curious to learn how to use storytelling as a tool to support learning and increase the effectiveness and enjoyment of your work with young people? Then this might really be your call to adventure!
"Get Storied" is a Mobility of Youth Workers activity promoted by the Italian organisation Cooperativa Sociale Muovimente. The course wants to make trainers, facilitators and youth workers aware of the many and various uses of the non formal educational method of Storytelling and show them how it can be used to work with young people, helping them to develop a big number of important abilities and competences in the professional and personal sphere.
Our love for story is universal. And we use story all the time. Every time we understand a new set of data, learn a new skill, change an attitude, or share a part of ourselves with others, we do it through formulating some sort of a story. By using the storytelling process consciously, we can learn how to increase the effectiveness, robustness, and enjoyment of our work with young people and not only!
We'll approach storytelling in many of its ways and forms, with a particular focus on the elements of Hero's Journey model, digital storytelling and gaming, theatre and role-playing and practises of personal storytelling.
The main objectives of this traning course are:
- To discover and understand the employability competences that are developed through storytelling;
- To create an intercultural network of youth workers and organizations that use the method of storytelling in developing employability skills;
- To explore the concept of "transformational storytelling", how to use storytelling as tool for innovation to change and self-development;
