| dc.description.abstract | This session provide a practical overview of the tools used for online storytelling and how Fulbright participatns can maximize the impact of their story online. Bob Tryanski, professional storyteller, introduces the art of storytelling by discussing “what’s in a name,” using the example of his own name, and getting the audience to share something about their own names. These conversations demonstrate how sources for story material are all around us. Storytelling is a relational versus transactional activity; the angel is in the details; and the art is in the listening. Jon Giullian, Librarian for Slavic and Eurasian Studies at the University of Kansas, asks audience to consider the origin of their Fulbright story and how they can tell their story forward to inspire future Fulbright participants. He describes various categories of platforms for telling a story, including social media, blogs, vlogs, website, storytelling apps, and public forums. He also share safety tips and security guidelines recommended for digital content creation. | en_US |
