= Digital Storytelling =

"'Digital Storytelling' is an emerging term, one that arises from a grassroots movement that uses new digital tools to help ordinary people tell their own 'true stories' in a compelling and emotionally engaging form. These stories usually take the form of a relatively short story (less than 8 minutes) and can involve interactivity." []

Example Digital Storytelling Assignment:
You will create a digital storytelling video that students could view to help them learn the content of a subject/topic. The final movie must include appropriate images, narration, and background music. One web site for background music is Flash Kit [[]].

You begin by completing a storyboard in the folder below. You may copy this page as much as needed. Your storyboard needs to be detailed so you know what is to be said with each image. You should practice your narration so it does not sound as if you are reading a script. Your narration should be conversational in nature and use appropriate voice inflections. Your final digital storytelling assignment must be saved in an appropriate movie format [mov, avi, mpg, wmv].

Your digital storytelling video must be uploaded to Internet Archive using ccPublisher and then embedded on a page in your individual wiki.

You need to create a digital storytelling story board that needs to be complete prior to finishing your storytelling assignment. You may use a presentation software, such as PowerPoint or Google Presentation to create your storyboard or the storyboard linked below:



Once complete, use the story board to create your storytelling video. Your digital storytelling video must be uploaded to Internet Archive and then embedded on a page in your wiki and the pages of your story board must be uploaded to the same wiki page and made available as multiple documents.
