Exploring transmedia storytelling in education

Workshop

Date: Wednesday 21 May 2025

Time: 13.00 – 16.00

Location: Online via Zoom

Transmedia storytelling – where a story unfolds across multiple platforms and formats – opens new doors for educational engagement. This online interactive session will dive into the possibilities of using transmedia storytelling to enhance learning experiences and connect with students in creative ways.

Whether you’re experienced in (digital) storytelling or new to multiplatform approaches, this workshop offers valuable insights into how transmedia can create immersive learning journeys that resonate with students. The overarching aim of the workshop is to provide a venue where you can explore how narratives across platforms can transform education through the power of storytelling.

Transmedia storytelling – where a story unfolds across multiple platforms and formats – opens new doors for educational engagement. It allows us to explore narratives in a multidimensional way, making space for deeper exploration and diverse perspectives. Imagine a course or module where literature, film, social media, and real-world interactions combine to provide a rich, immersive learning environment.

In this workshop, we will:

•    Examine the principles of transmedia storytelling and its educational benefits.
•    Explore practical strategies for integrating transmedia projects into your curriculum.
•    Collaborate on ideas that enhance engagement and support diverse learning styles.

The workshop lets you gain hands-on practice and experience, where you get the possibility to bridge disciplines, mediums, and student engagement.

Workshop leader is Elias Schweiler Associate Professor at the Department of Education. The workshop is given in English.
