Event Description
What’s the Story? Using Story Circles in Extension
In many lines of work, professionals view themselves as problem solvers. They/we are trained to ask, "What’s the problem?” In this session, we will focus on asking a different question: What’s the story? In our time together we will use a “fishbowl” process to experience and debrief a practical tool called a “story circle,” exploring how it might be adapted and utilized in community development, classroom and community-based education, and professional and organizational development.
