Art of Storytelling Your Research Discovery

Scholarly publications are naturally detail-heavy and jargon-filled, explicitly targeted to peers. Unfortunately, the engagement of a larger group of experts of different fields as well as non-specialist audiences are overlooked.

Museums have long employed the art of curation to disseminate knowledge and educate the public on history. By adopting the frameworks of museums, research findings could be conveyed engagingly through storytelling. Source

Reframing research outputs through curation is not just feasible in the form of written words like Plain Language Summaries, but also widely applicable to scripts of graphical abstracts and video abstracts. Source

The ies Storyboard translates research output into a compelling story through the adaptation of the “Big Why-Why-What” technique

The storyboard enhances the impact of scholarly discoveries by connecting them to real-life issues. By manipulating different component combinations, the dissemination of findings in various formats could be used to cater to the platform or audience targeted
