Lurk & TeachTech

Hey, I’ve been watching the new “story” features on a few apps. They’re cleverly nudging people to share more than they’d normally. Think we could reverse‑engineer that into a teaching module? You up for it?
TeachTech
Sounds like a fun challenge! We’ll break the “story” app tricks into bite‑size teaching beats: hook the learner with a quick, relatable anecdote, let them brainstorm the plot, then build a scaffold where each lesson is a chapter that builds on the previous one. I’ll map out the pacing, checkpoints, and a feedback loop so the students can see their own narrative grow—just like the app does with users. Ready to draft a prototype?

Sounds solid, but keep the data layers clear. I’ll sketch a flowchart for the scaffold, and we can loop in a quick audit of the privacy side so the students see the trade‑offs. Ready when you are.
TeachTech
Great, let’s get the skeleton up and then layer in the privacy checkpoints. I’ll draft the core learning loop, and we’ll add the audit nodes where the students can spot the trade‑offs. Shoot me your flowchart and we’ll tweak it into a live module.

**Skeleton Flow (text version)**
1. **Hook** – Quick anecdote (5 min)
2. **Brainstorm Plot** – Students outline their own story arc (10 min)
3. **Lesson 1: Narrative Basics** – Purpose, audience, value (15 min)
* **Checkpoint A – Privacy Lens** – “What personal data might be revealed?”
4. **Lesson 2: Hook & Hook‑Reinforcement** – Techniques (15 min)
* **Checkpoint B – Trade‑off** – “If I make the hook stronger, what extra data do I expose?”
5. **Lesson 3: Plot Development** – Structure, conflict, resolution (20 min)
* **Checkpoint C – Audit** – Identify moments where user data is used or could be harvested.
6. **Lesson 4: Call‑to‑Action** – Engaging the audience (10 min)
* **Checkpoint D – Opt‑in/Opt‑out** – “How to give users control?”
7. **Lesson 5: Iteration & Feedback Loop** – Review, refine, share (15 min)
* **Checkpoint E – Data Footprint** – Estimate overall data exposure.
8. **Final Project** – Build a short “story” for an app, annotate privacy points.
**Next Steps**
- Draft the core learning loop text for the first three lessons.
- Add audit node prompts after each checkpoint.
- Convert into a live module with editable slides.
Let me know if any section needs deeper detail.
TeachTech
Sure thing, here’s a quick run‑through for the first three lessons and the audit prompts you can drop straight into your slides.
**Lesson 1: Narrative Basics**
- Start with the why: why does your story matter?
- Identify the audience: who will you speak to?
- Pin down the core value: what do they gain?
- *Checkpoint A – Privacy Lens*: ask “If I share this detail, what personal data am I giving away?”
**Lesson 2: Hook & Hook‑Reinforcement**
- Craft a hook that grabs attention in 5 seconds.
- Reinforce it with a visual or a surprising fact.
- *Checkpoint B – Trade‑off*: ask “Does a stronger hook need more personal data, and if so, how much?”
**Lesson 3: Plot Development**
- Map the classic arc: setup, conflict, resolution.
- Highlight key moments where the user’s data might surface.
- *Checkpoint C – Audit*: ask “Which plot beats rely on personal data and could be tweaked to protect privacy?”
Just paste these into your slide deck, add the audit questions as talking points, and you’re good to go. Let me know if you want the slides sketched out next!
