DATA students in Matt Hamilton's digital storytelling class at Cathedral City High School are documenting this weekend's Frank Bogert Memorial Rodeo. Wednesday, DATA students Gleidy Isias and Karina Ruiz taped the ribbon cutting ceremony and interviewed rodeo queen Jessica Tourino (left). The rodeo takes place March 12-14. The rodeo web site is http://www.palmspringswestfest.com/
Digital storytelling is any story told using digital media: audio, video, photography, or any combination of the three.
It is important that we teach our students the craft of telling the story no matter what digital tool we are using. That’s what I spend most of my day doing at Cathedral City High School (California) as the Coordinator and Lead Teacher in the Digital Arts Technology Academy (DATA).
Digital storytellers need to be aware of language, written and spoken, visual literacy, and
a sensitivity to the narrative.
