1 Backgroud: WP3 Good Practices in the use of Storytelling and Digital Storytelling in training and education Diagnostic. Storytelling is today an important technique in the process of learning and understanding. Individuals gain a better understanding of one another through the use of concrete examples rather than through vague abstractions and generalizations which have no relationship to life's experiences, since the sharing of experiences through the device of storytelling enables individuals to build the bridge of understanding between one another. This facilitates commonality and the shared resonance of experiences. The story provides the framework and context for individuals to better understand others by providing the key to their own vast index of experiences. Thus, the listener is able to relate in a meaningful way to the teller's point of context by working through personal experiences that result in a more profound and lasting understanding than would have been possible with a generalization. The teller and the listener come together on a cognitive and emotional level that allows the listener to relate to the teller from his or her own personal framework and thus grasp the teller's perception of the content at the same time. This represents a remarkable, and yet very common, interpersonal experience. Data analysis: During the following months, all partners will do a research at national and global level to identify successful storytelling educational projects, especially those supported in Digital Storytelling and, through research analysis, it will present a compendium of information related to Storytelling as an educational methodology. The WP 3 leader, will compile all case studies in the need analysis report.
