Storytelling and us: why we are here
Storytelling – been around for a long time, frequently a chore, an opportunity or a delight for students who have begun to master the skills of literacy.
Now there is a new set of tools to tell stories – video, slide shows, audio, animation and a mixture of all of these. For teachers, learning what these communication tools have to offer is the first priority, then how to use them, then how to use them with students and finally, how to share and enjoy the stories that result.
