Storytelling enables us to make sense of the world and bring order to our thinking. Now more than ever, students are hungry for authentic learning experiences that offer opportunities to make an impact beyond the classroom. With practical advice and examples of how to plan, create, publish and assess student stories, this book offers a fresh approach to digital storytelling. And it includes evidence-based, classroom-tested guidance on how to provide students with the tools and structure they need to develop a mindset of curiosity, agency and purpose. Establishing digital storytelling as a framework for learning rather than a separate add-on project or a way to record work being done in other subject areas, the book covers various types of digital storytelling — from infographics and social media posts to podcasts and video documentaries — and demonstrates how to choose the best ways to incorporate digital storytelling into curricula. Student examples and teacher case studies provide inspiration on how to integrate the practice into classrooms of all grade levels and subject areas.
