STUDENT DIGITAL STORY-TELLING PROJECT - Favorite Bible Story
Tuesday, I gave a PD class on Digital Storytelling. I honestly wasn't sure what Digital Storytelling was - I mean - its bringing the age old tradition of storytelling into the digital age. Right? As I began researching, however, I was blown away. I had NO IDEA there are so many resources. I began compiling my list which I will definitely share but just in a nutshell, I can categorize them into four types.
* Video with Pics, Music, Text and/or Narration
* Animated Video
* Flip Book
* Comic Strip
Almost everything I found online is Free. Of course they all want you to Upgrade for more features for a price and then some are free for Education - like Animoto.
I don't know everything about each of the web 2.0 tools I found but I gave a short 1 minute demo of all the tools I found and asked the teachers to take notes. Then, I pledged to them that if they would pick out their favorite one to use in class I would do all of the extensive research and set up the students and write/teach a tutorial. So far two teachers have responded to my follow-up email. YES!
I have the following resources I would like to share:
I think this has been my best class yet this year. I would love the opportunity to present at TCEA or any other Tech PD Conference.
