Crafting a narrative for student learning

• In film and art, a “storyboard” is a way to visually present a plan for a narrative scene or story.

​

• It is a way to capture the essence of a sequence without having to account for every tiny detail.

​

• We’ve designed our unit storyboard template to give an overview that emphasizes learning transfer — students’ abilities to acquire, connect, and transfer their learning to new situations.

​

• Each storyboard is hyperlinked with articles, multimedia presentations, and videos that help students build the conceptual structure that facilitates learning transfer. 

​

• They also serve as the final product for our Learning Transfer Endorsed Educator online course.

​

• We will continue to update the links below as additional storyboards are created.

​

• Our goal is to grow a community of teachers dedicated to learning that transfers.

​

• We hope these storyboards serve as springboards for collaboration and discussion around the globe.
