  • Who are stories for?
  • How do you distinguish between entertaining our students and educating them?
  • What makes for a good story?
  • What do we do if we aren’t good at telling stories?
  • How do we know if we are good at telling stories?
  • Importance of the relevance to a course
  • Bringing in story in to a class without us necessarily having to be the storyteller
