Exploring the turning points in researchers' lives: Using the three-scene storyboarding technique
9 April 2013
iCeGS staff and associates have recently published a new report for Vitae entitled 'Exploring the turning points in researchers' lives: Using the three-scene storyboarding technique'. The publication sets out an approach to careers work called three scene storyboarding. Storyboarding aims to help researchers to set down their experiences, to think about their careers and to take action based on this reflection. Storyboarding is a creative technique which asks researchers to think about their lives in narrative terms and to set down their experience in the form of drawings. This is an innovative technique that asks them to think about their careers in an unfamiliar way. It can therefore be a challenging technique for professionals to get started with. However, this report shows that the storyboarding approach can be useful and that it can expand any researcher's career-management repertoire.
