Professional Development

Digital Storytelling is an instructional pillar of our classrooms. The successful implementation of storytelling is more dependent on pedagogy than technology. We have 25 years of combined experience with using digital storytelling as a reflection of standards-based work. Learn how to integrate student movie-making in any content area by attending a session, workshop, or webinar with Georgia and Jessica!
