Day 14: Turn Your Blog Over to Your Readers
Challenge #14 of the 31-Day Comment Challenge will be a first for me.
I am to turn my blog over to the readers. Ask a question and have YOU , the reader write the post through the comments.
I am in the process of developing a "How to Guide for Digital Storytelling for Educators ". See Digital Storytelling Part I , Part II , Part III .
This is part of a grant, I received from FCIS (Florida Council of Independent Schools), so you comment, suggestion or story (with proper acknowledgment) might end up in my upcoming printed version of the Guide, that will be distributed to affiliated schools. 
If you have integrated digital storytelling into your teaching, what successes have you observed in your students? What were stumbling blocks or frustrations for you while working on a project? Can you share implemented lesson plans or project ideas? What would you do different the next time?
If you have not ventured out into the digital storytelling world, what is holding you back? What are some questions you have? What would help you get started?
Help me build my post through YOUR comments. Don’t be shy…help me out and click on comment and post!

Story-boarding a live-performance script helped some of my students get from page to stage/screen. We used Keynote or Powerpoint to create individual ‘frames’ in the story-board.
I’ve also used the Comic Life application with students to create a story-line synopsis of a play for the program.

Hi, we started by choosing content that was familiar and easy to find to learn the technology. This allowed the kids to find images on Flickr, understand the technical aspects of adding sounds and timing. It seemed to work well and now we’re moving into different types of works such as using a combination of images and movie to tell a story.
