Digital Story Telling

1. What is Digital Story Telling?

-Digital Story Telling is a home made movie constructed of your own photos. These movies can be made to explain any story. All you need to do is add captions and music and it becomes visually stimulating. It also can be used to make a project for the students to present.

2. How would you use it in a classroom?

-You can either use it to explain a new subject in class (ie history) or put together an end of the year video to show the parents what their children have done the whole year.

3. How would you need to scaffold this activity for the classroom?

-I would make sure the videos are short and clear enough to understand.

4. What are the challenges of using this technology in a classroom setting with different age groups?

-What makes someone more technology savvy is experience with technology. The younger the student, the less experience they will have making it harder for them to be able to work with.
