Product Details

Storytelling is an important part of learning. Today's technology allows students and faculty to tell stories in powerful ways. The digital camera, editing software, and media outlets allow anyone to tell their story. Not only can they tell their story, but share a curricular concept, help in staff development, or create publicity for the school. With this capacity to create powerful stories, we need to remember what makes great stories for audiences. We should think about how storytelling helps students learn.

Digital Storytelling with PowerPoint helps teachers learn how to create, teach, and coach storytelling with students across the curriculum. You'll find broad ideas about storytelling in information literacy, knowledge management, and critical thinking.
