Tool #7: Digital Storytelling

I take a lot of pictures. Often, I take so many pictures, it's like watching a movie while scrolling through my pictures. When I figured that out, I started making movies on iMovie. I made a movie of a wedding I did the photography for, and I made a movie of the cliff divers in Mazatlan.

This is a never before seen, Kelly Arbuckle original.

I took the photos on a lake in Maine last summer. I forgot that I had started the video, but when I opened iMovie, I felt compelled to finish it.

I think this would be a really neat way for students to share their writing or show their interpretation of a piece of literature. I've used this type of thing for presentations as well.
