Digital Story Making 101

  Digital Story Making isn't as hard as it may seem. This is a great way for our older students to be engaged in learning through a story. This should be a great opportunity to have fun with your students.
  What is a Digital Story? It is a short form of digital making using digital media, such as images, audio and video. This process will be successful for the student because they will incorporate what they learn into technology which will enhance their creative process along the way.
   There are three different types of Digital Stories:

1. Personal Narrative- A way to document a discussion about current events such as multicultural issue, such as race, and religion. Here is one example of a personal narrative about a girl learning to speak Japanese.
2. Historical Documentaries- Designed to create material from historical material that was contained from the classroom.
3. Stories that Inform or Instruct- Stories that inform you on content areas in the classrooms like math, science, and instructional technology.
