Abstract
Storytelling, especially in its digital form, is an innovative pedagogical approach that has the potential to engage learners in student-centered learning, and improve the learning outcomes across the curriculum. This paper reports on a trans-national survey regarding the training needs of teachers, educators and trainers regarding the necessary key competences for applying this methodology in their teaching practices. Based on the results of the survey, a training program, presented in this paper, consisting of a digital course and a learning handbook, was designed and implemented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
