Module 1 - Storytelling

1. What is storytelling for you? 

For me story telling is a way of communication, which creates a connection between the teller and the listener. Storytelling allows the teller to transmit a story. By doing so, he/she entertains and transmits knowledge and experience. Storytelling is one of the ancient ways to communicate.

2. Why Digital Storytelling in class? 

Stories can be transmitted in many different ways. Speaking is nice. But what about using technology? Students will be dealing not only with the linguistic competence but also with digital citizenship and literacy.
Digital tools enable students to tell their stories with images, audio, moving text, dynamic backgrounds, props, characters, and other multimedia.

3. Your expectations and goals with this course.

- I expect to learn more about how to tell a story and engage my students within it.
- I expect to be able to use digital tools related to storytelling
- I expect to create digital stories
- I expect to include images, audio, moving text, backgrounds and so on in a digital story.

Welcome

Hi everyone, 

I´m Sergio and I´ll be your language teacher during this course. 


I hope we get to know each other well and have a great time in class. 


I´ve created this blog, which is going to be quite useful during our lessons. Throughout it, you will be able to interact and have some of your tasks posted - if the´re good enough 


The aim is to learn and have a good time if possible. 


Let´s begin!
