Digital Story and ISTE NETS-T

The Digital Story Project:
short, personal multimedia tale told from the heart. These stories can be created by people everywhere, on any subject, and shared electronically all over the world. Digital stories when viewed together, tell the bigger story of our time, the story that defines who we are.

ISTE NETS-T:
As foundational technology skills penetrate throughout our society, students will be expected to apply the basics in authentic, integrated ways to solve problems, complete projects, and creatively extend their abilities. ISTE's NETS for Students (2007) help students prepare to work, live, and contribute to the social and civic fabric of their communities.

The new standards identify several higher-order thinking skills and digital citizenship as critical for students to learn effectively for a lifetime and live productively in our emerging global society. These areas include the ability to:
•Demonstrate creativity and innovation


•Communicate and collaborate


•Conduct research and use information


•Think critically, solve problems, and make decisions


•Use technology effectively and productively


Make connections between the two.
Explain how they might promote learning in your future classroom.

Find a lesson plan, activity or idea that involves digital story telling in your content area and describe the activity or idea.
