What is a Digital Story?
A Digital Story is the use of multimedia to express, explain or share a topic in your own voice.
Tell me a fact and I'll learn. Tell me a truth and I'll believe. But tell me a story and it will live in my heart forever."
~ Indian Proverb
Storytelling is the way we learn naturally. It's the way lessons and information get transmitted. I can't imagine how we'd communicate without it."
~ Gay Ducky, storyteller, college teacher
Digital Storytelling Process
“Writing is the primary tool used to plan and create a digital story. The saying “if it ain’t on the page then it ain’t on the stage” is just as true for digital storytelling as it is for theater and movies.”
~ Jason Ohler, digital storytelling expert
