About Story Proof: The Science Behind the Startling Power of Story, by Kendall Haven
She says, “It’s a great book. It’s like The Power of Reading, by Steven Krashen. It’s the research behind storytelling … its value in education, the value in memory, the memory in understanding.”
Here is a quote from Kendall’s introduction:
I have reviewed over 350 research studies from fifteen separate fields of science. Incredibly, every one of those studies, as well as every other study they cite — every one — agrees that stories are an effective and efficient vehicle for teaching, for motivating, and for the general communication of factual information, concepts, and tacit information. Not one doubted the effectiveness of stories!
