Digital Storytelling

My 8th grade Project Technology class just completed a unit on Digital Storytelling. This is an excellent way to engage your students in the ancient art of "storytelling". Each student chose a topic in which they were interested and created a digital story. This type of activity can be used in many different classrooms, in all areas of the curriculum. At the end of the project, we watched everyone's "story" and many of them brought tears to my eyes! Samples of this project can be seen at my Google Site: Digital Stories Project
