Digital+Storytelling

 Digital Storytelling 101

People have been telling for as long as we've been on earth. Stories are a way of entertaining, educating, and communicating. Teachers have always been great storytellers and we all know that students love to tell stories. Digital storytelling is really just a way of taking what we've always done and adding technology to it. Adding technology to stories can make the process challenging, to be sure. But it can also make storytelling exciting, engaging, and creative. Given the challenge of creating a digital story, my students have, time after time, impressed me with their willingness to work on an assignment long after they would have otherwise stopped.

So.....welcome to digital storytelling! I hope you find something here to inspire you or to challenge you to try something new.
