Reflection 7

Digital story telling is a modern teaching technique that incorporates images, music, narrative and voice together to illustrate experiences, situations, characters, and insight. Digital story telling goes back to the ancient art of story telling when the listener would paint their own vivd picters of the owrds that were being spoken to them. This form of story telling makes listening so much more easier for the listener. Visual story telling allows a story and its character to have more depth and to me described in every aspect.
Digital story telling is such a usefull tool to use in any situaation exspecially if it is done with the right amount of effort and if it is done properly. Digital story telling is work really well in my opinion with retaining information that has been said in the story because of the images in the digital story. Most people are visual and auditory earners so for both elements to be used at the same time the listener/ learner will be able to retain more information without the stress of reading it though a textbook or hearing it as if it was a lexture in a classroom.
Digital story tellin is also looked at as a movement to some people because it presents change and because so many voices and stories are heard. This movent has alot to do with technology, we are always trying to advance in how we recieve stories and how we store them as well. Digital story telling takes out the chance of a story being misinterpreted and retold inproperly. Assisting a story with pictures just makes listening much easier, because most of the human race responds to visuals, and tend not to listen as much as look. So visual story telling will be an attempt to heighten both.
Not only is digitlal story telling a new innovative way to tell a story, but it also can be a tool in studying. Many student leaving high school and entering collage are not familair or do not know how to studyon their own. It is a process in it sellf for people to figure out what way they best recieve innformation. Weither its visually or through listening, sometimes it is both. Visual story telling addresses all the channels that humans recieve and retain information. It provides you with images to referance when talking about a subject or story, or writing about it.
