Sharing the Heart of Our Stories: A Digital Storytelling Journey

Digital Storytelling is a powerful medium for expressing student voice, sharing stories, and building an empathetic community. My action research project chronicles a digital storytelling project in one 6th grade class during a semester of Multimedia with 27 students at High Tech Middle Media Arts, a San Diego public charter school. The implications of my study share the dynamics of using digital storytelling to engage students in sharing personal stories in the classroom.
