I felt like learning about all the possibilities and ideas of what to do with a digital story made my head spin. I kept thinking, "oh that would be cool" or It would be fun to try that out". The assignment over the next few weeks is to contact our cooperating teacehr and get a topic on what the digital story should be about and then create a story board. As the weeks progress then more will be added to the story and it will begin to come together.
If I became proficient in this technology then it would be a very useful tool and could benefit not only me and my students but other teachers and children in the school. It is something that can be shared and can have a great impact. We are learning how to create these digital stories and other projects because technology is very important in schools today and the school that is hiring you expects you to know how to use technology efficiently and effectively.
To have this technology available and to create a digital story with a few words and/or focus on pictures with music, is amazing. It is true what is said about how a picture can be worth a thousand words. Just like that, it makes the possibilties endless. To be able to use a digital story as an intro to a unit or topic could be very cool. It would allow students to get a feel and use that emotion/thoughts they get from it to go through the unit. This would help me be a better teacher because this is a great teaching tool and I am hoping that by creating these that I can have the children express themselves openly about what it made them feel and hopefully that will be helpful in helping them learn.
