Getting Your Message Across: Storytelling for Researchers and other Professionals

Getting Your Message Across:
Storytelling for Researchers and other Professionals

A One Day Workshop

Wednesday 13th July 2016
Mansfield College, Oxford, United Kingdom

Call for Participation:

In September 2015 Inter-Disciplinary.Net hosted a one day workshop on Getting your Message Across: Storytelling for researchers and other professionals, during which we presented some of our views about the value of adopting a storytelling style, for those who want to write engagingly and in ways that both inform and challenge their readers. However, the dominant focus of the day was on two things. First, it offered participants the opportunity to reflect on some perennial problems faced by authors in writing both clearly and concisely about research and other professional matters, especially when they are writing for an inter-disciplinary audience. Secondly, it gave them the opportunity to engage in shared writing and live editing of text in a supportive and collegial group.

In our second workshop on Getting your Message Across, we will again be offering support to writers at all levels in developing an engaging style that communicates clearly, by conveying complex information as simply as possible using a storytelling style. In doing so we will invite participants to abandon the idea (if they have it, and many people do) that since their research and ideas are important, they need to use difficult and important sounding words (including as much technical jargon as possible) and to develop a style of writing that only really clever people will be able to understand. We will suggest, instead, that they should aim to make their writing as easy to understand as possible, by thinking of it as a species of storytelling.

Call for Participation
Anyone, from any background, who is interested in the use of storytelling to convey important ideas, is invited to submit a brief expression of interest in the workshop (up to 300 words) which should address one or more of the following:

- the reason or reasons that they would like to participate in this workshop, which may include references to what they have to share with others, as well as to what they hope to gain from it.

- whether, and if so, how, they think that the challenges they face in communicating their ideas or the results of their research to an interdisciplinary audience differ from those they face in communicating them to an audience of peers from their own discipline or subject.

- what, in their view, are the characteristics of engaging, genuinely informative and challenging writing in any area of professional or academic life.

Expressions of interest will be printed in the workshop booklet and during the workshop participants will have the opportunity to elaborate the ideas and views they have thus expressed, during a structured ‘round-table’ session.

We invite expressions of interest for people thinking of attending and for them to send a statement of their interest and experience/expertise to the organising chairs by Friday 26th February 2016:

Gavin Fairbairn and Susan Fairbairn: gsstory@inter-disciplinary.net
Rob Fisher: message2@inter-disciplinary.net

Schedule:
The day will begin with registration between 8.30 am and 9.30am Wednesday 13th July 2016 and will be followed by a series of presentation sessions and workshops. Refreshments and a 2 course sit-down lunch will be provided. After the final workshop and summation of the days discussions and the event will end with a drinks reception.

The workshop will include presentation by the workshop leaders; episodes of reflection and discussion, and a number of practical activities aimed at developing ideas and skills. So, for example, there will be:

Opportunities for reflection about the nature of academic and professional writing.
Opportunities to share problems with writing.
Opportunities to share ‘hot tips’ for writers.
Opportunities for shared writing and editing.
The opportunity to engage in ‘live editing’ of text as a group

Giving a timetable for a workshop like this is almost impossible. However, at some point during the day, we will talk about a range of issues, including:

Developing an engaging style.
Conveying complex information as simply as possible.
Abandoning complex language, big and important sounding words when possible.
Academic and professional writing as a species of storytelling.
Engaging, informing and challenging readers.
Empathising with your audience.
How citation can interfere with meaning-making in academic storytelling
Putting citation to use in developing academic texts, and in developing academic stories.

All of this activity will take place between the set timetable for coffee/tea breaks and lunch and will end with a wine reception.

Registration Fee: £85. (Special discounted price of £65 available if booked with the Story’s Place in our Lives event – details of which can be found here: http://www.inter-disciplinary.net/probing-the-boundaries/storytelling-global-reflections-on-narrative/research-streams/storytelling-global-reflections-on-narrative/story-2-call-for-papers/)

Workshop Leaders
Gavin Fairbairn and Susan Fairbairn:
Independent Researchers

Gavin and Susan have worked in a wide range of areas, including medical and nursing education; applied philosophy and ethics; social and environmental psychology; primary and special education; social work and residential care; learning disability; child, adolescent and adult psychiatry; teacher education; professional development and study skills. Between us we have published on a very wide range of topics, including medical and nursing education; doctor’s interviewing skills; suicide; reconciliation after conflict; empathy; storytelling; professional development; euthanasia; sexuality and learning disability; bereavement; the spiritual care of dying children, and inclusive education.

While pursuing our own professional lives, we have managed find ways of working together at times and have, for example, organised and chaired many conferences, including a series many years ago about Ethical Issues in Caring, as well as IDNET conferences on Empathy; Storytelling, Bullying and Responsible Living. Together we have published three books about professional ethics.

Between us we have published four books about issues in academic literacy. Gavin co-authored Getting Published: advice for academics and other professionals with David Canter and his book with Chris Winch, Reading, Writing and Reasoning; a guide for students, now in its 26th year and third edition, has been translated into both Portuguese and Chinese. Together we co-authored Writing your Abstract: a guide for would-be conference presenters and Reading at University: a guide for students, which has been translated into both Chinese and Indonesian.

As teachers at every level from nursery school to postgraduate level we have had a great deal of experience of facilitating the development of writing, including academic and professional writing. Together we have presented a number of workshops for developing academic writers and during his time as Professor of Ethics and Language at Leeds Beckett University, and in earlier posts as Professor of Education at Liverpool Hope and as Professor of Professional Development at the University of Glamorgan, much of Gavin’s time was given over to such workshops both with colleagues and students and at other institutions, including universities in Poland and in the UK.

Storytelling: Global Reflections on Narrative

Storytelling: Global Reflections on Narrative
9th Global Meeting

Call for Participation 2016

Sunday 10th July – Tuesday 12th July 2016
Mansfield College, Oxford, United Kingdom

Earlier meetings of the Storytelling: global reflections on narrative project have brought together participants with both personal and professional interests in the unique role that storytelling plays throughout our lives. We have been challenged by philosophers, literary theorists, artists, psychologists, playwrights, storytellers, film makers, historians, teachers, psychotherapists, nurses and many others, into reflecting on the place that story plays in our lives and the ways in which we consciously and unconsciously employ it. We have also been engaged, entertained and challenged by traditional storytellers from Ireland, New Zealand, Canada, the Philippines, India and elsewhere as well as by theatrical and musical performances, digital stories, films and performance art.

For our ninth global meeting we invite participants to continue to reflect on and celebrate story in challenging ways.

Human life is conducted through story, because the telling of stories comes naturally to us. Almost every time we speak we engage in storytelling, and sharing stories is arguably the most important way we have of communicating with others about who we are and what we believe; about what we are doing and have done; about our hopes and fears; about what we value and what we don’t. We make sense of our lives by telling stories about them; and we learn about other people by listening to the stories they tell. Sometimes, under the influence of the culture in which we are immersed, we live our lives in ways that try to create the stories we want to be able to tell about them.

The importance of the stories we tell and the stories we hear is recognized in every culture. The work of many professions, including medicine, nursing, teaching, the law, psychotherapy and counselling, involves a great deal of time listening to and communicating through stories. Story is a powerful tool for teachers, because by telling stories they can help students to integrate what they are learning with what they already know, by placing what they learn in a context that makes it easy to recall. Story also plays an important role in academic disciplines like philosophy, theology, anthropology, archaeology and history as well as literature Narrative methods for the collection of data are increasingly used in research in the social sciences and humanities, where the value of getting to know people in a more intimate and less distant way – almost as if we are getting to know them from the inside, is increasingly valued, and academics in many disciplines have begun to realise the value of storytelling as a model for academic writing.

Abstracts are invited for contributions that address any aspect of story or narrative, including, for example:

- Story as a pedagogical and research tool in academic disciplines such as history; anthropology, psychology, theology, cultural theory, medicine, law, philosophy, education, archaeology; the physical sciences and archaeology.

- Narrative and the gathering of stories of lived experience, as a research approach in any area of professional and public life, including academic disciplines such as those listed above.

- The place of story and storytelling in the practice of journalism; conflict resolution; architecture; religion; tourism, politics and the law, and in clinical contexts such as medicine, psychotherapy, nursing and counselling; personal relations and advertising..

- Story’s place in culture, including theatre; cinema; music, including opera, folk music and popular music; literature, including poetry, short stories and graphic novels.

- The place of storytelling in the digital age, including digital storytelling; forms of storytelling in social media; and computer gaming.

We especially welcome abstracts from those who bring together reflections from both professional and personal perspectives. Abstracts that address the interdisciplinary potential of storytelling, both as an approach to a wide range of topics and as a means for communication between colleagues from different academic disciplines and professions, are also warmly welcomed.

Suicide

Suicide
2nd Global Meeting

Call for Participation 2016

Monday 18th July – Wednesday 20th July 2016
Mansfield College, Oxford, United Kingdom

This is a Call for Papers for a conference bringing together international discussion of suicide and attempted suicide. Over one million people worldwide die from the deliberate ending of their own lives each year. Attempted suicide is beset by definitional problems, but we can broadly describe it as a serious attempt to end one’s own life. Suicide can be an ambiguous act, a cry for help that goes too far, or an ambivalent intention that fails to perceive the consequences for family, friends or community. Assisted suicide is a contentious aspect, both in current medical practice, and in society at large. Historically, suicide has been a vehicle for distinctive political or religious statements. Durkheim’s four categories – egoistic, altruistic, anomic and fatalistic – are even more resonant today than when he first formulated them.

Suicide has an associative but non-causal link with self-harm, and those who deliberately self-harm have a risk of suicide some 100 times greater than the general population. The UK is estimated to have one of the highest rates of deliberate self-harm in Europe, at 400 per 100,000 population (Self-poisoning and self-injury in adults, Clinical Medicine, 2002). It is hard, however, to arrive at definitive rates since self-harm is often practised secretly. Like suicide, it carries considerable stigma.

Gender, too, is a significant marker in the study of suicide, with the incidence of completed suicide very much higher in males than females, for all age groups and in most societies where recording occurs. In England and Wales, for instance, the male rate is three times higher than the female rate, and is the leading cause of death in the age group of males aged 20 – 34 years. A notable exception in the gender pattern is China where female suicides equal or exceed male rates.

Risk factors highlighted in research into suicide have included poverty, abuse, gender, age, masculinity, sexuality, mental illness, situational trauma, substance misuse, homelessness, unemployment and other adverse life events. Completed suicides leave in their wake a long-lasting trail of guilt, shame and pain, and the stigma is expressed in widely varying ways in different societies.

Societal responses to suicide have ranged widely across the spectrum, from encouragement or acceptance to outright criminalisation of the act. Suicide and attempting suicide have historically been considered crimes in many societies, and in England and Wales, for example, suicide itself was decriminalised as recently as 1961. Assisting suicide, however, remains a crime. There is pressure to change the law following some test cases, so as to permit assisted dying. This presents modern medicine, law and ethics with particular complexities since it runs counter to several core principles in those bodies of knowledge and practice. The stigma attaching to suicide can be traced historically to prevailing religious doctrines, and yet some cultures and sub-cultures have advocated suicide. Currently there are on-line sites that encourage or facilitate it.

There is a wide range of counselling and other therapeutic interventions and treatments associated with suicidal and self-harming states of mind, and these therapeutic approaches are also used to help deal with the painful aftermath of a completed suicide. Art and music therapies have been used to help sufferers deal with suicidal states of mind. Suicide and self-destruction are highly expressive aspects of the human condition, and, as such, have been fertile grounds in literature and art, producing a rich and poignant body of creative work.

Papers on suicide, attempted suicide, suicide and self-harm, and assisted suicide that begin from the following initial points of departure are welcome, as well as those who have an innovative approach unrelated to the following areas:
- Patterns, correlations, causes, relationship with self-harm, associated risk factors, institutional settings, relationship with political or religious ideology, personal and societal trajectories, prevention and therapeutic interventions, settings, histories and anthropologies, familial and social consequences, victims, professional responses, literary instances, and associations with creativity
- Links with drug addiction, with political activism, with religion conviction and ideas of sacrifice and redemption
- Themes in storytelling, in film and in theatre
- Philosophical links with ethics and theories of the self

Further details and information can be found on the conference website:
http://www.inter-disciplinary.net/probing-the-boundaries/persons/suicide-self-harm-and-assisted-dying/callforpresentations/

It will be of interest to those from medicine, law, ethics, psychiatry, nursing, social work, counselling, all caring professions, psychotherapy, philosophy, anthropology, psychology, sociology, criminology, political theory, history, cultural studies, history, creative writing, autobiography, biography, music, art, literature and lay people with a personal interest in the subject.

Call for Cross-Over Presentations
