Hey folks! What’ up? Hope you are having a nice day with
your loved ones. Spend your life with who makes you happy, not who you have to
impress. A good life is when you smile often, dream big, laugh a lot and
realize how blessed you are for what you have. We are not given a good or bad
life. We are just given a life. It’s up to us to make it good or bad. I have
seen better days but I have also seen worse. I do not have everything that I
want, but I do have all I need. My life may not be perfect but I’m blessed.
Sometimes life is very complicated. Do not try to search answers. Because when
you search for answers life changes the questions. Good things come to those
who believe, better things come to those who are patient and the best things
come to those who do not give up. So for this week blog, I have something fascinating
which related to technology.
I’m very
sure that not many of us know what digital story is. What is digital story you
may ask? Basically, a digital story is a media artifact which unites a chronicled
audio-text using stationary pictures to narrate an account. The artifact is recorded,
emended, reserved and probably shared digitally. In addition, digital stories combine
a verbal ‘text’ using sound effect or music to form what is in effect a short ‘mini-movie’.
Even though lubricated through the technology the figure is not operated by it
and the main focus for digital stories is conventionally the script. The amalgamation
of the text or chronicled story, spoken by the author and escorted through chosen
pictures could make a strong implement of communication. Digital stories are passably
low-tech, being created effortlessly on a computer or laptop using fundamental software
and hardware. The completed products had the benefit of being long-lasting and willingly
available and transportable. This task was a group project where I work with
two of my friends. We discuss and decided to write a prequel to an existing
fairy tale. We chose Peter Pan as our fairy tale.
On top of
that, creating a digital story is a procedure that is fascinating and valuable in
its personal entitlement. Mentally and psychologically, making a story requires
intellectual procedures of consideration appraisal and formation, whereas technically
the creation of a digital story could need several levels of new media literacy.
It could be comprehended hence that the procedure that goes into creating a
digital story could be functional and meaningful in itself, even whether the
end product is not effectual or amusing. Through the similar measure it is not pledged
that a story which has had the advantage of proficient creation, in the structure
of a staged and organized story evolution procedure, technical relief using recording
and editing, would inevitably be any more effectual than one made unassisted.
Besides
that, digital story has the possible to accredit learners. The stories permit learners
to manifest themselves as they are told through the learners themselves from learners’
own words. Learners who are uplifted to reflect on what they have studied and
to seem sensible of their studying encounter and also arrange information into
a short and simply attainable multimedia clip, creating a digital story causes fascinating
difficulties on some stages. It even had the benefit of including numerous unlike
talents both inventive and technical, several of which might be different to
the learners. I personally learnt a lot in the procedure of making a digital
story. Normally the way related with digital story gives the ability to foster deep
consideration, critique, scrutiny and ordering of information such as the topic
and scripting. I able to construct and utilise technology and media abilities, evolve
literacy abilities, furnish an alternative to written-based assignment work, encourage
critical-thinking capability, foster deep mastering, augment the mastering encounter.
There are the hard to enumerate abilities such as for reflection on a subject
and abilities related with individual evolution and interpersonal abilities. I
have developed my media literacy abilities and also technical abilities.
The barrier
that digital story poses is how to harness the huge abilities of the story structure,
with its probabilities to stimulate, engross, alter, by a procedure that would furnish
it with chance for problem solving, reflection and critical thinking. The main
challenges I encounter in finishing the given project is lack of digital
literacies. My lecturer offer software training and give me suggestion on what
software could be utilised to make our digital story. I’m not aware of how to
make a digital story. Our educator guide us by giving the guideline for the
project and what are the pointers we need to keep in mind when making a digital
story. We are not even mindful of what elements should we include in the digital
story. Then, our lecturer taught us what are the main components we must have
in our digital story and give suitable examples for our understanding on those
components.
Furthermore,
teachers out there could integrate this digital implement into the 21st
century classroom because digital story has the potential to be a very helpful
mastering and teaching implement. Digital story is acknowledged to have
numerous usages and benefits in education. Digital story could give a vehicle
to lubricate learning and for allowing learners offer meaning to their
encounter. Teachers should use digital tool to make learning more interesting
and engaging. There are some disadvantages in using digital tool in classroom
but if the educator knows how to overcome the problems then there will be no
issue in using these tools. It gives the capability to communicate with an
enlarging community to dispute matters and collect information. Digital tool
gives the potential to utilise computers, laptops and other gadgets to advance
learning. Some students are visual learners in order for them to understand
something, they need to communicate through pictures. This tool provides the
ability to comprehend, produce and communicate by pictures.
In a
nutshell, digital story gives numerous chances within and beyond education. In education,
the method is still at an exploratory phase, however digital story possibly
gives different methods for learners to master, present and reflect on their
work, utilising technologies which are relevant to them. As a way, digital
story gives advantages in terms of the engagement of learners with their theme
group and beyond. The method also furnishes a vehicle for the usage of pertinent
media literacy abilities previously bewitched through numerous learners in our
technology-driven time.
