Digital Storytelling
What is it!?!
"Digital Storytelling is a fantastic way to engage students, teachers and just about anyone else who has ever wanted to be the next Ken Burns or Steven Spielberg. There are many different definitions of "digital storytelling," but in general, all of them revolve around the idea of combining the longstanding art of telling stories with any of a variety of available multimedia tools, including graphics, audio, video animation, and Web publishing" (http://www.coe.uh.edu/digitalstorytelling/introduction.htm).
This course will use Photo Story 3 to create a digital story, but there are many ways to create digital stories and programs that can be used.
