This week we learned about digital stories (they are stories that are digital:). It is using a computer as a media to tell a story or present information to a group of students in a new and fun way. I like how you can show so many images at once and give the information at the same time. I think that because it is using technology that it will really engage the students as well.
As I was exploring the digital stories website, I discovered that you can use this idea for many different things. There was a digital story about how a student's parents met! I thought that was great. Not only could we use this tool to teach children, but it would be a great way for students to do an autobiography or talk about their family history. You could use this for anything!! It would definitely have to be geared towards older students and would be a project that would span over several weeks, but it would still be a great project to do at the beginning of the year so that students can get to know each other.
