Digital Storytelling was given as the Blog post topic. So my first question was What is Digital Storytelling? So the search began. First, Wikipedia states that "Digital storytelling" is a relatively new term which describes the new practice of everyday people who use digital tools to tell their 'story'. Digital stories often present in compelling and emotionally engaging formats, and can be interactive."
To my surprise, Digital Storytelling is what my kids do all the time. My life is about photos not videos of any kind. My kids make videos about themselves or things happening around them almost daily. This is something I have not had any interest in doing. I love my photos in my scrapbooks. As the search and learning began I quickly realized that Digital Storytelling is just an extension of scrapbooking. How does this translate to libraries? Digital storytelling is a great way to show off a library or a collection in a library. It is also a great way to keep track of history by sharing stories (kind of like scrapbooking).
I found a couple of videos that explain Digital storytelling and how to make one in PowerPoint.
