Fluid Roles in Digital Storytelling


Morris, R. J. (2013). Creating, viewing, and assessing: Fluid roles of the student self in digital storytelling. School Libraries Worldwide19(2), 54-68. 



This article presents some findings from a study were students are creators of digital storytelling projects. The ages studied are 9-13 years old. It was designed to look at how students interact and participate in various roles. It demonstrated how students fluidly and independently shifted their  roles from that of creating/making/designing to that of listener/viewer/observer. And it demonstrated the need for school librarians to support technology. Essentially, it also supports the concept of blended learning, as well as 21st century skills.
