Learning through STORYTELLING in Higher Education
Learning Through Storytelling in Higher Education explores ways of using storytelling as a teaching and learning tool. When storytelling is formalized in meaningful ways, it can capture everyday examples of practice and turn them into an opportunity to learn - encouraging both reflection, a deeper understanding of a topic and stimulating critical thinking skills. The technique can accommodate diverse cultural, emotional and experiential incidents, and may be used in many different contexts eg formal/informal; one-on-one/group setting.The authors outline the different models of storytelling and explain how to make use of this technique and encourage a 'storytelling culture' within the workplace or in tutorial sessions.Academic yet accessible, this book provides a new perspective on learning techniques and will be a great asset to any educator looking to improve reflective practice.

Embedding Math Problems in Cultural City Tours to Increase Student Engagement and Inclusion
This paper aims to investigate whether embedding mathematical problems in cultural tours around cities can effectively increase student engagement, enhance knowledge retention, and promote inclusivity among students with varying abilities. First, we present the content development process and then the evaluation process with the participation of 78 high school students and six teachers. Quantitative data were collected through pre- and post-tour questionnaires, while qualitative data were gathered through teacher interviews to evaluate engagement, knowledge acquisition, and inclusivity. The results indicate that the pedagogical tours significantly enhance student engagement and foster collaboration among students of different abilities. This study contributes to the development of innovative pedagogical approaches by integrating storytelling, gamification elements, and real-world contexts to make mathematics learning more engaging.

Young people, learning and storytelling
Explores the lives of young people through the lens of storytelling. Using extensive qualitative and empirical data from young people's conversations following storytelling performances in secondary schools in the UK, the author considers the benefits of stories and storytelling for learning and the subsequent emotional, behavioural and social connections to story and other genres of narrative. Storytelling has both global and transnational relevance in education, as it allows individuals to compare their experiences to others: young people learn through discussion that their opinions matter, that they are both similar to and different from their peers.

Storytelling as a Skeleton to Design a Learning Unit: A Model for Teaching and Learning Optics
Instructional design is an essential part of teaching practice: both researchers and teachers are engaged in finding strategies to deal with this complex work. We propose the use of storytelling as a skeleton to structure a long-lasting teaching unit, maintaining coherence and giving meaning to its various elements. We refer to an interpretation of storytelling for educational purposes as a role-playing game, drawing inspiration from the Digital Interactive Storytelling in Mathematics framework. Designing a learning unit based on storytelling means integrating every moment of the teaching–learning process within the narrative: the teacher and students are all part of the same story, which motivates every activity carried out in the unit and contextualizes the tasks performed. Moreover, the assessment is also integrated into the narrative flow. In this study, we designed an exemplary Storytelling Learning Unit (SLU) model for the study of light, promoting modelling and argumentation skills in mathematics and physics. This unit, intended for ninth-grade students in an Italian scientific high school, was co-designed by the teacher of the class in which it will be implemented. This work particularly focuses on the design process. From reflection on the specific unit developed, general design principles for creating a SLU were hypothesized.
