      WHY Digital Storytelling?

      Digital stories push students to become creators of content, rather than just consumers. Weaving together images, music, text, and voice, digital stories can be created in all content areas and at all grade levels while incorporating the 21st century skills of creating, communicating, and collaborating.

      Great digital stories:

      • Are personal
      • Begin with the story/script
      • Are concise
      • Use readily-available source materials
      • Include universal story elements
      • Involve collaboration at a variety of levels
