Abstract
Storytelling has been contributing to the diffusion of knowledge and human wisdom through time. It constitutes an international medium that can build bridges between different cultures and generations, by transferring values, traditions and social practices. Digital storytelling, enhanced by the extra abilities computers, the internet and digital cameras have to offer, constitutes another way to tell stories in the digital age. This paper presents the method applied to the creation of digital stories by groups of both undergraduate and postgraduate students. We demonstrate the necessary steps every digital story production should follow as well as the stages of its creation. We also present to conclusions deriving from a qualitative analysis of a series of digital stories.
