Project Ideas and Approaches
ABOUT DS 106: DS106 is an innovative open digital storytelling class at U. of Mary Washington. The course broadens the definition of “digital storytelling” in significant ways, to the extent that the course is really more about digital identity and creativity, but many of the site resources are a great help to digital storytellers. In addition to the two sources for project ideas above, also see the: DS106 Handbook
Resources for Teachers
- Jason Ohler’s Digital Storytelling site
- Storytelling and new media narrative
- Educational Uses for Digital Storytelling
- Digital Storytelling Multimedia Archive (research on writing and DS)
