Creating story elements from a group of stories is a sensemaking exercise. Using this exercise to make sense of the stories you told about your future project can help you figure out what matters most about the project. It can also help you avoid mistakes in which you don't realize what you really want your project to achieve.
Follow the instructions given on the page, moving down the page as you go.
The elements derived on this page will appear (with the stories they came from) in the project report.
By looking deeply into what is "inside" each story, you can think deeply about what you hope and fear might happen in your project. This micro-project will help you make decisions about your project, in the same way that your project will help people in your community or organization make decisions about the topic of your project.

We're programmers, and we like mucking around with raw data. If you like doing that too, you can edit your clustered items directly. If you don't want to do that, ignore this option.
