What is Digital Storytelling, and How Can I Use it in My Classroom?

A Digital Story is a powerful Digital Literacy activity for ages 10+ created by weaving digital photographs, video, voice, text, and music into a digital video project. A chance to reflect on the self, culture, identity & future goals, this personal narrative documentary workshop provides an easily-accessible opportunity for youth to reflect on their own strengths, culture, responsibilities, and dreams for their future.

In this 1-hour Professional Development workshop, educators will learn why Digital Storytelling has been so successful for fostering Digital Literacy and storytelling skills, and how easy this workshop is to implement in their own classroom using devices and tools they already have access to.
