Paper Abstract:
|
When students are engaged in the process of creating a digital story, they synthesize a variety of literacy skills for the authentic product: researching, writing, organizing, presenting, interviewing, problem-solving, assessing, as well as employing interpersonal and technology skills (Baggett, 2007). With all these skills to be developed among students, digital story creation is found a highly valuable undertaking. This paper lays down the perceptions of college students about digital technology. Specifically, this research examines the rigors and benefits of digital story creation pertaining to 1) its influence towards academic performance, and 2) its role in promoting communicative competence. Hence, this paper investigated students experiences in creating and using digital story books as used among classrooms in the tertiary level. Surveys, interviews, reflective journals and analysis of created digital stories served as data gathering tools in completing the paper. |
