of the 21st century. The iPod touch,® iPhone,® and
iPad™ mobile
digital devices have changed the way we think about computing.
We now can hold the computer in the palm of a hand and
know that . . . “there is an app for that.”
The iPod touch, iPhone, and
iPad devices have great potential in the educational
arena because they are very mobile allowing for use any
time, any where, and any place.

People love to hear and
tell stories. Students share stories about their families,
friends, favorites, and travels. It's been said “everyone
has a story to tell.” Digital storytelling gives
children the opportunity to reflect on their experiences
and use their imaginations. Up until now digital storytelling
has been too technical for many students and teachers
to successfully accomplish. By using the templates and
resources in this kit, schoolchildren of almost any age
can tell their stories through images, text and sound
and share their stories with others.
