Digital StoryTelling

Every culture has used storytelling as a powerful tool for imparting tradition, culture, wisdom, mystery and myth. We have all been enthralled by a good story whether told to us by our grandfather, read to us by our mother, or given to us in the movies. While listening, we conjure images and sounds to go with what we hear. While viewing we compare the images on the screen with those we have in our heads of a book or a hero. Digital Storytelling takes the two traditional skills of academic storytelling; writing and reading, and adds music and images to the mix. Students become powerful storytellers of their own ideas and experiences in this process as they use traditional literacy and media literacy skills to weave their tales.
