Digital Storytelling

Digital Storytelling is exactly what it sounds like. It is a way of telling stories through digital media. You can use different images, sounds, interactive elements, and effects to tell a story. You may even add narration or music to the slides to go along with the story. They can be used for instructional or fun purposes. They can be applied to any subject and on any content that you would like. With the world wide web, you can find pictures on anything that you want these days, and start your own story with them. One of the largest storytelling projects is sponsered by BBC to capture stories from around the United Kingdom. Groups of students may collaborate on a project together, but this is mainly geared as an individual project assignment for each student to be creative and display their own knowledge. Digital Storytelling is a great way to incorporate technology into learning! More ideas can be found in the article 7 things you should know about Digital Storytelling.
