  1. The story of Storybase Storybase is an instructional design tool that uses a story as its basis. The following slides provide background information and a prototype for your review. << Home >> Overview Welcome Community Storybase Designing Instruction with Stories Getting Started Open Project DKKTools (Davis, Kearney & Kim - EDG6328/Fall 2008/Dr. David Merrill

  2. Storybase Foundation Storybase owes its foundation to several, well-established Instructional Design (ID) principles and models. Story -based Integration Application First Principles Story Demonstrate Coaching Activate Pebble-in-the-Pond Gagne’s Nine Events << Home >> S2 - DKKTools (Davis, Kearney & Kim - EDG6328/Fall 2008/Dr. David Merrill

  3. “We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them. “ -- Albert Einstein << Home >> S3 - DKKTools (Davis, Kearney & Kim - EDG6328/Fall 2008/Dr. David Merrill

  4. Story is the core. Storybase uses story as the kernel of instruction. Drawing on the power of story-telling and the constructivist influence of problem-based learning (PBL), Storybase employs key story elements along with other proven instructional design models to help novices design effective instruction. Benefiting from the added motivation and relevance a story can provide, the resulting instruction promises to be more engaging. Using stories for learning does require a bit more effort and creativity to design and develop, however. Therefore, story-based learning may not be the right strategy for every type of learning goal. Stories are best suited for learning outcomes in the cognitive domain, especially those concepts, principles and processes that are “abstract”, “uninteresting or colorless”, or “difficult to appreciate”.

  6. Storybase uses Pebble-in-the-Pond. Storybase provides a design and development process that is inspired by the five phases of the Pebble-in-the-Pond instructional design model. Problem Production Analysis Design Strategy Story << Home >> S6 - DKKTools (Davis, Kearney & Kim - EDG6328/Fall 2008/Dr. David Merrill
