Digital Storytelling

Digital storytelling is way to tell stories using the digital technologies that are available to you.  Digital storytelling is much like oral storytelling you just have many more tools at your disposal. You can use videos, text, pictures, and audio to help tell your story. There does not seem to be any hard set rules to digital storytelling. You can use it for just about anything that you want to tell a story about.  It just helps you to be able to have more tools for you to get your point across.

This can be a great tool to let your students be creative. Once you give them the guidelines for the assignment you can let them go and see what they come up with. It is a really great way to see what type of artistic talents your students have. For younger students you may want to just do one as a class so you can guide them along more.
