EDLD 5363 – Week 1 Reflection – Creating My Personal Digital Story

This week has provided me with the opportunity to not only utilize a new tool in Photo Story 3, but also to reflect and express a part of my life that I have needed to for awhile now. My mother is an amazing woman who has had an immense influence on my life, even more so than I realized. When I read through the “Digital Storytelling Cookbook” (Lambert, 2007) guidelines and reflected on the many stories I could tell, I kept coming back to my relationship with my mother.

Utilizing the information provided in the readings, as well as experimenting with Photo Story 3 (boy, have I missed these technology classes!), and again working with Kimberly McKay, has provided me with a busy, but fulfilling  experience that I have truly enjoyed this week. I look forward to learning even more multimedia tools that I can use in my classroom to engage my students. Bring it on!
