Digital Storytelling is a great way to get students involved in creating their own masterpiece about whatever topic you are working on. According to an article by Learning Initiative, for students "The deeper impact [of Digital Storytelling] comes from their thinking critically about effective combinations among audio and visual elements". This provides a way for students to create a work of their own which they can personalize, expand on, and truly be proud of. Digital Storytelling is so great because it has the benefit of "including an effective integration of technology with learning, an emotional connection to content, and increasing ease of sharing content". Students can connect with this project on many levels, whether they are talking about their passions, World War II, or Shakespeare!
