About my Digital Story

The Quote I chose for my digital story is: "I am learning all the time. The tombstone will be my diploma." - Eartha Kitt. I chose this quote because I agree with it 100%. Just because you graduate from high school or college doesn't mean you know everything, or anything really. We learn new things everyday.

I think the digital story relates to the ISTE-NETS standard 1: Facilitate and inspire student learning and creativity. This is a very creative-friendly project. Assigning this would definitely promote creativity and engage students using digital tools and resources.

This could promote learning in my future classroom several ways. This tool could help my students learn about an event or person in history and increase their knowledge in a better and more interactive way than lecturing.  

I could have the students pick an admendment or a Supreme Court Case and make a photostory describing the significance and history of that particular thing. For example: Say we are learning about the constitution. If I give each student an admendment to work with, then present at the end, all the admendments get covered but it's a fun and new way.
