Digital Storytelling
This week we were assigned to make a digital storytelling. Digital Stories can be used to explain a concept, to reflect on a personal experience, to retell a historical event, or to make an argument and they are typically videos that combine audio, images, and video clips to tell a story. It was team work and my team mates were Büşra and Esma. For the type of our digital storytelling we were given several choices then I and my friends chose public service announcement. We mentioned the “smoking” issue in our project. It is a widespread world problem that concerns both adults and children. We had the prior information how the smoking is bad but when we investigated more it for our project we got more concerned about it because of the statistics.
Generally I liked this job to search for new apps and learn how to use them was both fun and instructional. Additionally, like other task it was a team work and this again improved our collaboration skills. Instead of reading about a topic, via Digital storytelling we can listen to the topic which is supported by visuals and this makes Digital storytelling more practical. It can be useful in language classrooms because of the fact that it develops speaking skills. However it may be useless for young students whose language knowledge is low because they may not be able to catch the words.
