Double Entry 4

"If digital stories are going to survive in education, they need to be tied to the curriculum and used to strengthen students' critical thinking."

I could not agree more with this statement and the fact that while these can be very helpful and useful tools to help students learn and teachers more accurately relate to their students, the digital stories themselves need to be tied to something.  The ability for one to critically think on subjects and wrap their minds around thoughts is one of the most valuable abilities one can learn and can be used and applied to every facet of life.

this article touches on sort of the same thing, it simply explains what digital storytelling is.  Again, just using digital storytelling just to use it seems monotonous and useless. I can not stress and agree more with the point made about it being tied directly to the curriculum.
