DIGITAL STORYTELLING TOOLS AND SOME PROJECTS
In the previous section I presented my online research about Digital Storytelling (DS) and interesting links . Here you can see some interesting projects and useful examples which I have checked on line to see how the tools can enhance my teaching.
I have also found this interesting presentation which was shared by two teachers of English and which is really interesting for people who want to know more:
Digital and Mobile Storytelling in ELT from Valentina Morgana
First of all the tools online:
- prezi
- thinglink
- storybird
- littlebirdstales.com
- wevideo
- youtube
- vimeo
- animoto
This is the link to the topic " presenting projects with videos and images" and which might be related to what we have been doing: animoto seems to be a nice tool but you need to pay for a subscription.
