Learning ToolBox for Digital Storytelling

Digital storytelling creates a rich curriculum and application of information literacy and technology standards.  The emphasis needs to first focus on the literacy skills, and then on the technology.  Hardware and software are the tools to apply literacy skills and standards.  Great storytellers understand and have mastered the science of these skills and the standards to improve their art of digital storytelling.
