Part 1⁠—Narrative Places

STORY OF SELF

What do you consider your work in digital learning (i.e., how would you describe it, what all does it entail, what is “your work”) and why were you called to it?

Story of Self

STORY OF US

What purposes, goals, or vision do you share with others locally?

Story of Us

STORY OF NOW

What is a local challenge related to your work in digital learning?

Story of Now

Part 2—Living Framework

SITUATE STORY

Describe a single event that embodies the local challenge you identified that relates to digital learning.

Situate Story

DEFINE STORY

Who are the local actors in this story?
Who are the global actors in this story?
What desirable actions do these local/global actors maintain?
What undesirable actions do these local/global actors maintain?
How are these actions significant in local contexts?
How are these actions significant in global contexts?
What motivates you to address these actions?
Why is new action necessary among the systems you define?

Define Story

REIMAGINE STORY

What new action(s) might you take to address this challenge?
What subactions need to be tackled in order to complete each of the actions articulated
above? Note: If you listed more than one action above, answer each of these questions
below for each action above.
- What new subactions might you take to address this challenge?
- How might this subaction prove significant in your local context?
- How might this subaction prove significant in the global context?
- What motivates you to undertake this subaction?
- How can global collaboration support this subaction?
- What resources do you need in order to act?
What one new action are you most inspired to pursue? Why?

Part 3—Antenarrative Inquiry

Antenarrative inquiry is “the attempt to free stories from the linear sequence of beginning, middle, and end in narrative” (Jørgensen & Boje, 2009, p. 34) and invites storytellers to place a bet on the future(s) that they would like to
see come to fruition through their actions (Boje, 2011; Boje, Rosile, & Gardner, 2004; Jørgensen & Boje, 2009). As you
answer these questions, think about what future goals you want to achieve and work backwards from there.

REFLECT
Which SDGs connect to this new action you have identified in the final question of Part 2 (i.e., the one you stated you are most inspired to pursue)?

Reflect

Goal 1: No Poverty

Goal 2: Zero Hunger

Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being

Goal 4: Quality Education

Goal 5: Gender Equality

Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation

Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy

Goal 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure

Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities

Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities

Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production

Goal 13: Climate Action

Goal 14: Life Below Water

Goal 15: Life on Land

Goal 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions

Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals

Note: Unsure of which UN SDGs apply to your new action? Reference the OLC Alignment Resource for Storying Digital Learning Change Work offered below on p. 10 of the OLC Framework for Storying Digital Learning Change Work. This resource document highlights the linkages between the SDGs and digital learning through different real-life examples offered by the authors of this framework.

CRAFT

List the SDGs that you identified and answer the following questions for each. Note: You can engage cyclically in this process as many times as you like but try to start with one SDG and move from there.

How might new action bring about the aspirational vision of the world as contextualized by this SDG?
Who will be responsible?
What opportunities exist for collaboration?
Who will be affected?
Who will maintain the action?
What may success look like?
What may impede success?
How will you collect feedback?
What ongoing resources are needed?
If desirable, how may new action be sustained?

Craft

CRAFT (continued)

What is the optimal artifact (given time, constraints, resources, etc.) that you can develop in support of this action? Note: We encourage you to consider how you might collaboratively design and create/build a change-oriented asset. This might be a resource, a proposal, a detailed strategic plan, etc. that you provide as an aid to your community specifically. Also consider sharing this out more broadly with other communities in support of addressing similar or related challenges.

Craft Continued

ANALYZE

What testing protocols can be created to collect feedback on your artifact and its efficacy and impact? Who are the specific stakeholders or community members that would be important to provide feedback on your action plan/work?
Reflect on the process of using this framework thus far – how did your perspectives or ideas shift and/or become more grounded by reflecting on change work through the lends of the SDGs?
What new ideas emerged through engaging with this storytelling framework? This might include connections or linkages to other projects, partners, collaborations, and resources

Analyze

Thinking ahead to the point of creation of your artifact, how will you present it to your community and publicly share it as an asset?

Where will you share it? Do the spaces currently exist or will they need to be created?
How will members of your community be able to access the artifact?
What planning needs to occur to maintain the quality, relevance, and impact of the artifact?
How will you continuously improve the artifact over time?
