This podcast is a recording of a wonderful presentation by 4th grade teacher Christy Paradise at the Oklahoma State Department of Education’s annual Social Studies and Fine Arts conference on Saturday, February 2, 2008, at the Moore-Norman Technology Center just south of Oklahoma City. Christy applied and was selected to participate last fall in a special digital centennial project in Mid-Del Public Schools. Along with 8 other teachers, she received her own Macbook laptop computer, a digital camera, an iPod Nano, and an iMic which permitted the iPod to be used as a mobile digital recorder. The iPod and iMic were added to the library inventory at Christy’s school so students could check them out and take them home to use in digital storytelling projects. Christy permits students to regularly use the digital camera during the day to capture non-linguistic representations of concepts and ideas they are studying in the formal curriculum, and also create images which serve as story prompts for writing activities.

Christy’s comment that “anything on YouTube is fair game to use in digital storytelling projects” is not accurate. Refer to the article “Copyright 101 for Educators: Winter 2003″ for more information about educational fair use in classroom contexts.
