They provide teachers the valuable feedback they need to adjust their teaching so student learning moves forward.

Top Ways for Kids to Tell Digital Stories. Top Ways for Kids to Tell Digital Stories When students want to tell a story digitally, or present information they know about, there are several excellent tech tools they can use. You may recall I compiled a List of Digital Storytelling Tools, which brought together links to the actual tools, links to my example of some tools, links to my whole reviews of other digital storytelling tools, and links to articles about digital storytelling in general. In Creating Digital Stories with iPad, I focused on iPad tools only and brought together apps I’d reviewed, and a list of other possible apps. Recently I was asked to choose a few of my favourite ways for kids to make a digital story or presentation of some kind. Today I’ve listed my personal favourites here so you don’t have to wade through a huge list if you don’t want to.
