#7 Tell stories10 Lessons from the Folk High School #11af Andreas Harbsmeier, Michael Schelde m. fl.

We understand ourselves and each other through small-scale stories. And through our grander ones, we are given a framework for understanding our existence. This means that story-telling has always been an indispensable element of the folk high schools – as it still is. Hanne Kirk explores the nature of narrative and the possibilities it offers, and four stories show various ways in which it can be brought into play in a pedagogical context.
