Teaching Digital Storytelling
Digital Storytelling means creating stories, well, digitally! i.e., with a computer as opposed to pencil and paper. This means there is no one right way to create a digital story, the important thing is to be creative, and to have fun!
Using freely available software, students and teachers can create comics, cartoons with Scratch, and 3D animations with Storytelling Alice.
Let’s start with the basics. To create a simple story, you need:
- Pictures that illustrate what you are trying to convey
- Software to create a story from the pictures
- Audio (optional)
