The Digital Director’s Guild is a website established to explore three interrelated questions mostly focused on pedagogical best-practices for using digital storytelling in the classroom:
- How do we structure projects effectively to engender the kinds of products we hope to see (i.e. moving from electronic encyclopedia entries to engaging, insightful documentaries)?
- How do we streamline the pedagogical process to both connect with core content standards and fit within the time and context restraints of the classroom?
- How do we employ the technology in a way that is rich enough to enable divergent and creative expression and “clean” enough to enable students to focus on the substance of their work and not get lost in transitions, titles, etc.
Thanks to Mark Hofer for posting this in the SITE digital storytelling blog. The Digital Storytelling examples included on the site are well worth checking out.
