Digital Storytelling

Many teachers in our cluster are currently using digital storytelling in their classroom programmes. These are used in a variety of different ways from exploring narratives, writing reflections, or as a glimpse of their learning in e-portfolios.
Staff pd in making digital stories has taken place in several schools, all using many different programmes and platforms to create them.
Digital storytelling allows students to develop their research skills in finding rich and deep content, to synthesise that content, to develop communication skills, to organise ideas, to ask questions, to express opinions , to construct narrativesand to write for a real audience. WOW!!
Go to our cluster wiki and download the powerpoint to answer questions on what and why.
