Our school advisor, Ms Marianthi Kotadaki, organised a seminar called “Digital Storytelling for the Development of Productive and Collaborative skills” and I thought it would be a good idea to attend it.
In order to understand the way digital stories are built, we had to write our own short story and turn it into a digital one! My story is about school bullying. The tool I used was “Picasa 3“, as I have used it before and allows the use of image, sound and slides with text. Special thanks go to my colleague, Christina Chorianopoulou, for lending her warm voice to narrate “Regret”, my short story. Here is the dropbox link to it.
The ultimate aim, of course, is to encourage your students to create their own digital stories!
That’s exactly what I did with my students! I chose an easy programme, Photostory 3, which you download on your PC and then add photos, text and sound. It will turn all these into a beautiful video! All they had to do was to think of a story! They came up with a very touching one, “2 Bodies, 1 Soul” and another one for Halloween!
