Digital Storytelling

Assignment Title: Digital Storytelling

https://www.wevideo.com/view/313025197

Uses in the Classroom: Using copyright friendly photographs, students will design a digital story about an important accomplishment or goal that they achieved.  Students will need to describe the event in detail and explain how this event changed them.  Students will use Windows Movie Maker or WeVideo to create their digital story.  Students will need to find photographs and music that is suitable for the story and mood that they are conveying.  Students will need to design a storyboard which organizes their ideas and data prior to using the computer software.

Issues to Consider: Students will need to have access to Windows Movie Maker or WeVideo as well as to microphones to record their stories. One major aspect to consider is the classroom noise and the effects it may have on the students' work if created in the classroom.  The microphones used may pick up other students talking in the background as a student records their story. Students may also use their own photos for their story, so they will need to have assess to their photographs through USB or perhaps through cloud.  Students will also need to know the copyright laws and where they can access copyright friendly photographs and music. For those students who use WeVideo to create their video, the speed of the internet during presentation would also need to be considered.
