Last Tuesday, Nov. 15th, I had the opportunity to view Alan Levine’s presentation on Digital Storytelling. As part of the #eci831 class, Alan not only spoke to us about some “shiny and cool web 2.0 tools” but also the craft of storytelling using these tools. I found the session to be very informative (to say the last!) and was eager to try out some of the tools. Throughout this session and in my on-going experimentation with these tools, I continue to remind myself that they are simply vehicles that drive the process of whatever we are doing. In this case it was storytelling.
Earlier in the course I tried the 5 Card Flickr Story tool and found the process to be engaging and entertaining. I shared this with some of my colleagues who are eager to try the process. No reports back yet.
This week as I work on my final summary or learning and the major digital project I thought I would give www.glogster.com a try
Dean’s 1st Glog – Let me know what you think.
Although this glog is not meant to be my final project, I wanted to give it a try and was happily distracted by glogster.com this afternoon.
I hope all is well with you and yours as we head into the final few weeks of the course. All the best and have a great week!
