·       Summarize :

       Story telling has been a part of human history from the beginning.  It gives people the chance to use their imagination.  Sadly story telling has been forgotten in education today. Technology gives students the opportunity to use images, voice,  and text to create their digital story. Having students put these videos together forces them to think and reflect on what they are learning.
