Description	Storytelling offers great potential as an assessment format with opportunities to facilitate and expound a variety of knowledge, understanding and skills. For sustainability education in particular, storytelling allows students to simultaneously demonstrate their expertise of an academic subject whilst exploring and communicating complex, abstract ideas such as sustainability through literary technique. This chapter presents detailed examples of existing practice where storytelling has been used within assessment to enable students to acquire and demonstrate sustainability literacy, namely through the curation of blog posts, through the creation of personal learning stories and through the use of fiction as a prompt for reflection. The chapter discusses the transferability of these ideas from operations management and work-based learning to other subject areas and for additional learning purposes. It provides some further ideas and resources to support the integration of storytelling into assessment design for sustainability literacy.
