 Where to begin?

 

A great way to begin learning about Digital Storytelling is by watching a digital story. One of our favorites is The Look, a personal narrative about how an educator teaches science fiction. The story is told in a humorous and interesting manner filled with little known historical information on the subject and uses still images and video from famous science fiction stories and films integrated with historical resources.

Teacher may model the writing of this story, taking ideas from the students and using the "Think aloud" strategy.
TLW explore the role of a story title. Content Expectation(s): R.NT.02.04; W.PR.02.01
The role of a title is to attract attention, entice a reader into the
work, identify the focus of the content, and establish the uniqueness of the work. A title may be developed at the beginning or at the end of the writing process, but may be revised at any time. Often a book or film will have a "working title" and the actual title will develop over the course of the writing or filming.
