ILT Project: Changes (a digital story)
IT 5340: Digital Storytelling in the Curriculum

The purpose of this project was to develop a digital story and create an instructional unit that integrates digital storytelling activities.

My digital story will work as an introduction to a unit of instruction that includes several vidcasts introducing web 2.0 tools for online learning. It clearly introduces what the unit will be about, and from a visual standpoint, will project a professional presentation and useful approach to the subject. There is a seriousness to the content of this unit of instruction that if applied, can present many ideas for effective use in the online classroom.
