Abstract
This chapter suggests that there is value in placing a primacy on the stories of student experience in higher education classrooms. Student storytelling and listening holds potential to deepen students’ understandings of the course content and foster new connections. Ways to hold the learning space that will foster student storytelling, listening, and exploration are considered. Instructional issues of directionality of instruction and control are considered. Also discussed are some foundational practices for liberating psychosocial spaces and the notion of formlessness. The chapter attempts to balance conceptual thoughts with some practical ideas that readers can begin to customize and apply in the context of their practice. Suggestions for future research are also included.

An Integrated Narrative Generation System: Synthesis and Expansion
The story in a narrative is the equivalent of a temporal sequence of events, and an event is a unit that changes a particular state in a story. This most important narratological concept is clearly different from the concept of narrative discourse. Although a narrative discourse structure is a narrative organization based on the elements directly appearing in a represented narrative itself, a story is a narrative organization that implicitly exists in a represented narrative. For example, a story is constructed through a receiver’s inferential and imaginative abilities through a narrative reception process.
