My name is Captain Redbeard and I have taken all the treasure from this chest because I needed to buy a new pirate ship. Arrrrhhhh!

Why did it work?

• Learners were actively involved.

• Learners had a certain amount of control.

• There were clear reasons to listen and participate.

• I could react to the learners.

Alternatives• Learners decide the whole story, or certain aspects of it.
