The Importance of Storytelling

"If history were told in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten" -- Rudyard Kipling

Starting on November 1, 2021, we began an innovative school project in the TEAL Center at Newark Tech High School in Newark, N.J.  Our goal is for the students to produce a Public Service Announcement (PSA) telling the story of the dangers of fentanyl.  It will be student-written, student-directed, student-edited and student-approved. It will be called “Any One Pill Can Kill.”
We utilize storytelling skills and techniques to teach the dangers of opioids.  Stories–rather than pronouncements or warnings–are invaluable in teaching. Knowing how to tell stories is invaluable in living.
