Digital Storytelling

I love to read. Always have, and suspect I always will! When I read Denise's blog, I was fascinated when the video commented that ELA teachers rarely use digital storytelling....as an ELA teacher I should know about this technological innovation, right? Well, I was ashamed that I did not really know what it was all about, so I was one of those reading teachers who has not used it...Oh, but that is about to change!

At first, I thought digital storytelling was like WebQuests...until I got into the rubrics for evaluating, creating, etc. This is a key component to boost students' critical thinking skills.

Check out digital storytelling. What do you think? How could you incorporate it?

  1. I found the video to be quite interesting, and I'm glad it helped you out with your post. I guess I'm not the only person who was motivated after viewing.
