Uses in the Classroom: After viewing several different podcasts and digital storytelling videos I thought about how I could bring that into a Kindergarten classroom. Then it clicked:)
I saw several that used high quality images and photos to tell their story which are great for middle school and high school students. But a few showed how teachers took pictures of the student's hand illustrated then uploaded it into a web site called voicethread. From there teachers had the student record what their picture/sentence/words were. With a little help prompting them it was awesome!
I will have my students write a three part story that includes a beginning, middle and end. Then I can take pictures of each page and upload it to the website. Then students could comment and record their voice about their picture.
Issues to Consider: This is going to be a huge undertaking when working with the 18 students I have in my class. Not only do they need to create a high quality piece of writing, it will take a lot of time on my part to email myself the pictures then make sure that all the images are accounted for. Finally when recording students voices it can get load in the classroom or hallway at certain times of the day that might interrupt a student.
