This course aims at helping teachers develop skills to plan and manage digital storytelling tasks in the classroom. 

It is a self-paced course to be taken on your own. 

Each module will first outline the content and learning objectives, then it will develop the content and follow it up with one or a few tasks to do hands-on practice  in order to optimize the learning. At the end of each module you will also be asked to keep a journal where you write a short reflection on the usefulness of the specific content learnt and possible applications in your teaching and learning context. This journal can be on paper or digital.
