Digital Storytelling is as the title suggests. A person telling their story using current digital technology. Storytelling is an expression of one's experiences. Creating your story using multimedia tools simply adds to the creativity and expression. As a future English teacher I can see that Digital Storytelling could be an entire unit plan, that can then be broken down into specific subject areas. Such as writing the narrative or script, drafting many copies, oral speech presentation and then of course there is the interaction with technology which is essential in today's classroom.
Kearley and Shneiderman (1998) affirms that learners need to interact with ICT's for them to be truly engaged in learning. Digital storytelling can achieve that goal of engagement with learning through ICT's and the best thing is that the students probably won't even realise that they are in deed learning.
