Finishing the Book

http://www.microsoft.com/education/en-us/teachers/guides/Pages/digital_storytelling.aspx

I read your comments where several of you feel that you aren't "getting" this so I looked online and discovered this resource for you. It steps you through how to have YOUR STUDENTS create digital stories. From creating the storyboards to what you need to download (MovieMaker or Photo Story) to be successful, it's all there. I also found a "how to" article for you at the following: www.edutopia.org/digital-storytelling-classroom so check it out. Then finish the book, find a teacher friend (if you need one!), and let's have students create digital stories. Please email the student's digital stories to me when you have completed them (students may certainly work together on this!!! Whatever works!!!). Blog about how well this works or doesn't work within your classroom. Remember we have digital cameras in the KES library for checkout.
