TCF 444: My Digital Story
Okay, so I'll be honest... I haven't had time to edit a new digital story but here's the last one I produced 2 months ago. It's about the way I teach (and specifically one that I co-taught in Minnesota a few years ago), and my on-going study of the practices of teaching digital storytelling.
I know, I broke my own "rule" that digital stories shouldn't be more than 5 minutes, but this isn't your "typical" digital story.
Let me know what you think!
