My Digital Story


Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.

This is my digital story of when I went to Halloween Horror Nights a few weeks ago. This was a really fun project to do, because I love taking pictures, and scrapbooking. In a way, digital storytelling is like an online scrapbook. In my field, education, digital storytelling would be used a lot if most teachers knew how to create them. Instead of giving lectures, they could tell a story through these videos. They would be educational, and at the same time they would entertain the students. It could also be a good way for kids to learn how to create storis with their own pictures. A teacher could give different projects using digital storytelling. One example could be having students practice their presentation skills in front of the class while explaining their vacation. Another could be a group project where students have to work together to put a digital story together. There are so many lessons that can be learned from digital storytelling.
