At present, digital literacy skills (DLS) are essential for student teachers for developing the ability to use creative IT which is useful for effective work implementation. However, student teachers ...do not really possess DLS and are unable to apply them to their teaching methods, so the digital storytelling media via gamification to enhance DLS: DSML(Digital story model learning) is needed as an instrument to support them in acquiring digital literacy. The objectives of this research were to analyze the factors of the DSML and to assess the model appropriateness. The study was implemented through 42 papers of relevant articles and research from specific primary and secondary sources. The research instruments included lesson plans, the learning model, assessments of DLS, and assessments of workpieces. The findings of the study show that the factors of model consist of activities through DSML in 2 aspects with 10 factors and 29 variables. The test was validated by experts for the appropriateness of the learning through DSML. Overall, the DSML was found to have the highest appropriateness level (mean = 4.62, S.D. = 0.13) so it can be used in real learning and teaching situations and it is helpful for enhancing students’ DLS in the design and development of digital media. Based on the findings, the students could extend their learning scope with DLS in building digital media. These skills are necessary for Thai teachers in the future, and the model can be a prototype for doing classroom-based research or presenting research work at a national level.
The Australian National Museum website reminds us all that on 21 April 1856 stonemasons in Melbourne downed tools and walked off the job in protest over their employers' refusal to accept their ...demands for reduced working hours. This brought the employers to the negotiating table and led to an agreement whereby stonemasons worked no more than an eight-hour day. It was the first of a long, hard-fought series of union victories that led to Australia having one of the most progressive labour environments in the world by the early twentieth century.
BackgroundHuntington’s Disease, by its genesis, symptoms and course, threatens to immobilise and isolate entire families in fatigue (including burn-out) and stigma.AimsThe project will structure a ...narrative space of attention (Care), specific skills for volunteers of multi-channel active listening services, awareness-raising among citizens.MethodsThe project orients patients and carers towards a greater social protagonism, favouring the activation of resources complementary to the health/social care to face the destiny of non-self-sufficiency. The current participants (4 patients and 7 carers) were involved in individual and group activities. They were interviewed according to the narrative interview methodology. A non-literal selective transcription was carried out in order to capture the meaning of the testimonies and transfer it to interviewees. Together with the restitution of the text, interviews were carried out on the experience of being interviewed, in that way and on those topics. In groups, the participants began to use expressive skills and preferences to talk about themselves and their experiences, especially in their constructive dimension, ranging from poetic to visual language.ResultsThe group is being formed, with exchanges and sharing. The interview texts are ready for additions, comparisons and other processing.ConclusionsThe project is ongoing. The work with the group will result in further content in different forms of expression (first axis). Training interventions are planned to consolidate and complete specific relational skills in volunteers already active in Telefono Amico Italia (second axis). Citizenship information and awareness-raising interventions will follow (third axis).
Research has shown that experiencing awe can support people’s well-being and enhance their resilience. A secondary phenomenological analysis was conducted of data collected from the Awe Project, a ...5-day, online resilience program. Based on the existing literature, which demonstrates that reflecting on positive memories can support individuals’ well-being, a practice during the Awe Project prompted participants first to define awe and then to share a personal awe experience. The results indicated that many of the participants’ awe definitions and narratives were consistent with themes relating to previous awe research while new awe-related themes also emerged. Additionally, many of the awe definitions and stories included elements relating to resilience practices such as cognitive reappraisal, connectedness, gratitude, meaning and purpose in life, mindfulness, and self-efficacy. The results indicated that explaining awe and sharing awe narratives can potentially support people’s well-being, and that being exposed to awe narratives may support this as well.

This article introduces a special issue of the American Behavioral Scientist in which scholars of public deliberation address the theme of “Deliberative Play” from different conceptual and empirical ...approaches. Here I introduce the concept of deliberative play against a background of philosophical accounts of deliberative action, the theory of metacommunication, and trends in the study of public deliberation that are endeavoring to reduce the gap between normative theories and the empirical realities of deliberative democratic practice. Articles in the special issue address several aspects of deliberative play: how storytelling activities accomplish deliberative play in online forums (Black, Wolfe, and Han); how facilitators can cue and maintain the deliberative play frame during facilitated deliberative discussions (Sprain); how playful exchanges are enabled by the structure of New England town meetings and what they accomplish (Townsend and Milburn); how alternative scenarios for action presented with pros and cons by expert consultants influence deliberative play in online discussions in Poland (Przybylska, Bucholc, and Mazur); and how online discussion interfaces would benefit from applying principles of game design (Gastil). The concluding section reflects on the results of these studies and their implications for further investigations of deliberative play.
Narrative tradition refers to the way storytelling is passed from generation to generation. Tradition is not an unchangeable or pure object. The reason that people cannot approach tradition ...rationally lies in its maternity and divinity. Tradition is not passed down only by narration because at times the narrative related to tradition creates tradition or serves as a substitute for tradition. Nowadays, people learn tradition more through narratives related to tradition. There are many forms of expression in narratives and only by grasping the main line of “storytelling” can we penetrate the existing barriers of the disciplines and restore the genealogy of the narrative tradition. The latest anthropological studies suggest that the main reason for human success is storytelling, which helps to convey the significance of narrative traditional research.
An annual patient safety lecture is offered through a partnership with the local children's hospital. Presentations focus on the personal impact of medical errors, as told by families, patients, and ...care providers. The human stories of involvement with a medical error expose situations and actions that can lead to adverse clinical events.
Nursing education strategies heighten students' awareness of patient safety policies and guidelines but may not assist students to understand the human impact of medical errors and their role in preventing them.
Storytelling links course content to actual accounts of lived experiences involving medical errors. It promotes reflective learning by prompting students to examine beliefs, challenge assumptions, transform their understanding of concepts, and connect theory to practice.
The annual culture of safety presentation promotes a deeper understanding of the role and responsibility that nurses have in promoting safe clinical practice.

Like Cinderella, many repurposed products involve a biographical transformation, from a tattered past identity (e.g., an old airbag) to a product with a valuable but different new identity (e.g., a ...backpack made from an airbag). In this article, the authors argue that marketers should help customers infer such product stories by highlighting the products’ tattered past identities. Three field experiments and four controlled experiments show that making a product’s past identity salient boosts demand across a variety of repurposed products. This is because past identity salience induces narrative thoughts about these products’ biographies, which in turn allows customers to feel special. Results also suggest that this strategy of past identity salience needs to be particularly well-crafted for products with easily discernible past identities. These findings highlight a promising new facet of storytelling (i.e., stories that customers self-infer in response to minimal marketer input); create new opportunities for promoting products with a prior life; and deliver detailed guidance for the largely unexplored, growing market for upcycled and recycled products.
