Everyone has a story to tell. As I read anything it seems I am looking for a connection that relates what I am reading to my own story. My first introduction to digital storytelling came from Deneen Fraizier Bowen who showed several digital stories in a keynote address I attended a couple of years ago. It was the story that caught my attention initially- a teacher struggling to uncover the amazing potential of each of her students in the midst of standardization and uniformity. But as I was challenged to make my own digital story I realized the power of the other modes (in my case photographs, computer images I found, music, and my own voice) were more powerful as a whole that any of the individual parts. The process I experienced in choosing and creating was transformative. Digitales has one of my first stories and stories from many others who have experienced the power of storytelling 21st century style.
