What is it about?
We're interested in the ways that storytelling is used in the holistic college admissions domain and how we can design technologies that improve this process. Through three workshops, we learned how college admissions officers create and tell stories about the college applicants they are responsible for. We then proposed some designs for their system and present ways that other domains can support storytelling.

Why is it important?
Storytelling is an important tool used in many domains. Our work can increase the effectiveness and efficiency of such domains.
Perspectives
This was my (Tee's) first experience designing and conducting participatory design workshops. This work led to new perspectives in our overarching project and really emphasized to me how important storytelling is not only in the holistic college admissions domain, but in other areas as well.
