A workshop exploring the crafting and shaping of oral stories. This workshop will also be held on Friday 12th October led by a different storyteller. This workshop will explain how software can be used for educational drama, story creation, and publishing multimedia stories. There will be a chance for hands-on experience of programmes, and discussion about the effect they can have on children's learning. Storytelling is a living part of our history and is a key to, and expression of, our local culture and individual people.
Stories give people and communities a voice and a sense of themselves.
In this workshop participants will be guided in how to access and use material from their own cultures and local roots, and use them in a comtemporary context.
