Our Stories

  • Welcome to writing collaborative stories

    At this stage of our project we are going to write chain stories about the life in a digitalized future in our transnational teams.

    Each of our eight teams consists of three groups:

    • A Germany
    • B Greece
    • C Italy

    We will write the stories in three stages:

          1    each group starts its story

                  Decide on the protagonist of your story, the setting and plot.

                  Write the beginning of your story (ca.100 word)

           2   each groups continues the story of another group

                  Read the beginning of your partners' story.

                  Brainstorm in your group how the story could go on.

                  Create the next part of the story (ca.100 words).

                  Be careful about point of view and tenses.

           3    each group finishes the story of the third partner

                  Read the parts of the story your partners have written.

                  Discuss in your group how the text could end. 

                  Write the ending of the story (ca.100 words) 

                  Be careful about the style.

        Please, don't change font and size. If you need more space, add another slide.

    OUR COLLABORATIVE STORY BOOK

     

     

    Stage Two of Storytelling

     

    Our stories have been finished. Congratulations on your creativity.

    Now it's time to create  titles, illustrations, and a news announcement to promote the story.

    For this task you are matched with another team. Here are the pairs:

     

    Team 1 Team 2
    Team 3 Team 4
    Team 5 Team 6
    Team 7 Team 8

    First go to your partners team's presentation and read all the three stories you find there.

    Then create 

    1. a title - replace "Story of group..." with your title
    2. illustrations  - you can add extra slides if needed
    3. a news announcement for each story - put it into the empty slide at the end of the story

    We suggest that

    group A  works on the story group B started,

    group B works on the story group C started and

    group C works on the story group A started

    Of course, you can use the forum to discuss your work. If a group needs help, contact the other groups of your team.

    You can use this tool to create the news announcement.
