"Digital
Storytelling is a fantastic way to engage students, teachers and
just about anyone else who has ever wanted to be the next Ken Burns
or Steven Spielberg. There are many different definitions of
"digital storytelling," but in general, all of them revolve around
the idea of combining the longstanding art of telling stories with
any of a variety of available multimedia tools, including graphics,
audio, video animation, and Web publishing." (from
Educational Uses for Digital Storytelling)
