Abstract

The present study aims to highlight the usefulness of creating meaningful and memorable course for students by organizing its content in a narrative manner and by making use of stories and of narrative activities adapted to serve the educational needs of the course, with examples applied on a BE course structure. Combining narrative structures encourages students to use language in a dynamic form, to organize ideas and sequences in a logical order and to connect fragments of information in a natural manner. Narrating is part of our individuality, through it individual knowledge, personal reactions and professional experience are activated and offer a useful support for meaningful and memorable language practice.
