Abstract

A fundamental aspect of teaching, on any topic, is the continual pursuit of telling a story. Although technology and advances in teaching methods may facilitate new and exciting forms of presenting course materials, they do not, by themselves, build the context for the content of a course. Every lecture, activity, homework assignment, project, quiz, and examination can be regarded as chapters that build, over the duration of a course, a compelling and engaging story in which students take part. The aim of this talk is to encourage development of speech science courses that weave together history, theory, technology, visual and auditory experience, assessment, and, importantly, the instructor’s own research to spin a good tale.
