Expressing compellingly now requires text, images, sound, animation and video. I came across some valuable information on the techlearning website. There is a new literacy, without learning it we will be increasingly irrelevant.
By combining writing (a script, presented in a voice-over), images or short video clips, sound effects, and music into a movie, students can find a way to become producers of content as well as consumers. Clear communication encompassing a variety of media is comfortable and natural for today's students and engages them in creative thinking and planning. Resources for learning this skill include the following:
* Center for Digital Storytelling
