Abstract
We all tell stories. The stories we share are shared to some purpose; e.g. to communicate ideals, to share knowledge, to warn, to entertain, to educate or show status. The story we tell changes depending on the context – when we tell it and who we are telling it to – and how we choose to tell it is also revealing of our values and underlying beliefs. This workshop is designed to explore the way we tell our stories, and practice telling and retelling stories through a series of collaborative story-games. Attendees will help to explore the possibilities for designing a set of storycards to help teams construct and tell stories around software projects.
