2. making sense of storyboarding the learning verbs for interrogating anecdotes… what’s going on here? who - what - when - where? got enough to go on? > finding-out - looking / seeing / listening keeps coming back to me? hardest to deal with? why I have to do something? > checking-out - sorting / focusing / probing how did it get this way? what can I do about it? how I can make it work for me? > working-out - explaining / anticipating / trialing biggest surprise? changes how I see things? different from people I know? > sorting-out - noticing / comparing / contrasting

3. for working with your students & clients on the point of their stories… making sense of storyboarding useful questions > eliciting a story> finding a meaning> establishing a purpose what’s going on here? keeps coming back ? how did it get this way? biggest surprise? asking about their significance - how the scenes are designed and arranged asking about what can be done now - planning & rehearsing action asking about making the scenes - what the person has put in the scenes
