Digital Story Telling

I was so intimidated by digital storytelling before I completed mine. But now I am a huge fan of the technology. I think this is more effective than having kids create a poster or a visual. Instead they can sharpen their knowledge of computers and technology. I do have some reservations regarding using this. In order to do this the class would need extensive time in the computer lab, which can be difficult to acquire in some schools. Also, underprivileged children could be put at a disadvantage in completing a digital story because they may or may not have twenty four hour access to a computer. So the challenge as a teacher is to find a way to incorporate this technology while being fair to all of the students.
