For me, it’s been liberating to put myself in the mind of a fictitious six year-old each day, and rediscover my own curiosity. A playful mind is inquisitive, and learning is fun.

I’m an old-school artist, so I hope not, but when it comes to our books…it seems like it is tilting that way. Content marketers have to rejoice: Ebooks cost less to produce, are more portable, and can reach a wider audience with easy distribution.

The decision to make ebooks is a no-brainer, it seems, right? Is Anyone Reading Ebooks? The answer to whether people are reading ebooks is a hearty yes. On Amazon, Kindle ebooks outsell hardcover books. But what about the ebooks you often see flashed across a blog or marketing site? We’ve made heavy use of ebooks on our website, mainly to entice our audience to sign up for our email list in exchange for an ebook. But I have a confession about all of the free ebooks I’ve grabbed: I rarely read them.

In fact, I grabbed that author’s free ebook, just like 24,000 other people did…but I never got around to reading it. As a tool for grabbing emails, the ebook exchange still works well enough.

Per poter vendere su Internet è indispensabile il sapersi guadagnare la fiducia dei propri potenziali clienti. Ma contrariamente a quanto molti fanno, questa fiducia non si acquisisce mostrandosi più in gamba e più attrezzati degli altri.

Preferisco, quando esiste la possibilità di farlo, fidarmi di chi avverto possa essere maggiormente in sintonia con i miei valori ed aspettative. Preferisco acquistare da chi conosco meglio ed apprezzo per il percorso che ha fatto. Acquisto con maggior soddisfazione quando so che sto aiutando una o più persone che mi piacciono per quello che fanno e per come lo fanno. Compro insomma, quando me ne viene data la possibilità, da qualcuno in cui credo, ammiro e ho fiducia. 1) Che Cos'è lo Storytelling Ogni volta che dici: "Non sai cosa mi è successo stamattina...

A. Digital storytelling a scuola | DOL MOOC. Il MOOC “Digital Storytelling a scuola” affronta il tema del narrare storie attraverso le tecnologie digitali nella sua doppia valenza, didattica e comunicativa. Il messaggio fondamentale è che non necessariamente queste due dimensioni – la qualità comunicativa del risultato finale e la qualità dell’impatto didattico – si sviluppano in armonia. Trattandosi infatti di un’attività che si svolge a scuola, con una classe o un gruppo di studenti, il coinvolgimento di tutti può portare a un risultato non perfetto ma didatticamente efficace, mentre all’inverso il coinvolgimento dei migliori può portare a un risultato più raffinato ma meno “inclusivo”. Questo corso si inquadra nel progetto europeo Comenius TALES (www.storiesforlearning.eu) come attività di training dei docenti (di tutti i livelli scolastici).

TALES analizza l’impatto didattico del “narrare storie”, sia orali sia digitali, in ambiti educativi formali. Scarica la DESCRIZIONE BREVE del corso Al termine del corso, i partecipanti.

It’s a wonder we get any work done at all. The human mind loves stories. Even where no “story” exists, we often make one. Given the human propensity to tell stories, and the equally fascinating desire to consume them, I want to discuss why stories belong in the classroom and how they can be an effective teaching tool. The neuropsychology of story processing On uWaterloo posters around campus, you may see the Benjamin Franklin quote, “tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” “There was no sign of the bus and the instructor was going to be late for her first day of class. Our mind really plays along. For these reasons, stories have been described as a flight simulator for the mind.
