According to 7 Things You should Know About Digital Storytelling, “Creating and watching digital stories has the potential to increase the information literacy of a wide range of students.” I think that using digital storytelling will be an effective teaching strategy with students who are visual learners or digital learners. Digital storytelling will be able to help students to develop their abilities of presenting self- expression, autobiography, or historical events, especially, in multicultural classroom.
A website “Center for digital storytelling” stated that “Digital Storytelling is currently being used in more than 80 countries with many different applications, including education, marketing, and self-expression, among others.” It seems to reflect that students who are digital learners getting more and more nowadays. Therefore, digital storytelling will be a good tool for teachers to teach, reach, and engage their students more effectively in digital era.
Digital story-telling can indeed be a good vehicle to increasing language performance, but of course the value of the lesson depends on how well it is planned.
