Down to Earth Digital Storytelling
Gabel, Dusty
Library Media Connection, v30 n1 p24-27 Aug-Sep 2011
People don't just live in a material world anymore. They live in a digital world. Today's students have grown up with technology and the Internet. Like most people, they cannot thrive in their daily lives without the use of a digital device. In this article, the author suggests that teachers match their teaching strategies to the learning styles of their students through digital storytelling--a story-writing and storytelling process that is intertwined with multimedia, which may include images, video, narration, and music--and provides a list of resources.
