Hello guys! This week we talked about "Digital Storytelling" and create a digital story about How To Dye Your Hair with my friend Ayris. Check out her blog and read her posts if you want. So, let me explain what is digital storytelling and my experience about this issue.
This is a short story created by combining a recorded narrative with images (still or moving), and music or other sounds. The story is usually 2-3 minutes in length and told in the first person, about a person, event or issue the narrator feels strongly about. The digital storytelling process typically recognizes many elements of storytelling, including the oral tradition, the writing process, the power of visuals, and the role of digital media in recording and sharing stories. These are stories about people and places that often go untold. They can be transformational, as we are invited to see events, places and people from a new perspective and experience them in a new way.

About my experience; as I mentioned before I created a digistal story with my friend Ayris. At first we got very confused that there are so many tools for this task but at the end we can find the free one. Then we decided our topic and this is a bit challenging too because we wanted to narrate a topic which is unique. After we decided the topic we tried to use a lot of tools but at last we settled on "VoiceThread". We uploaded our recordings and pictures from our computers easily. We completed the task quickly. You can also add a text, a video or a phone number and communicate with your viewers online, and you can record your voice while adding drawings to the slides.

Finally, I also want to share my opinion about this task. I think although creating a digital story is challenging and a bit difficult for students and learners, it is also very useful to learn or teach something. It is entertaining too. So in the future I'll use this method in my class.
