This webinar is the bible for Digital Story Telling. The webinar explains everything that you will need to create and publish your digital story. This includes how to upload content, what tools to use for editing, how to upload, and which media channels for which you may want to upload your video.
Rather than explaining how to create digital stories, this article gives tips to the classroom teacher, highlighting things to remember. These tips include the importance of trial and error, student accountability, and allowing students to push and lead you.

A annotated list of different screen capture tools that teachers can use to create screen captures. These can be used to create videos of your computer screen to create your own lessons or even instructional videos to give students directions on what to do or how to use a certain application even in a flipped classroom setting. Some of these resources also have other uses including editing capabilities and the ability to upload other types of videos.
Catlin Tucker discusses how too often teachers that attempt to implement a flipped classroom feel that they need to make the videos themselves and fail to make use of the resources that are already available. She then discusses that watching a video after school is still passive learning like sitting in class listening to a lecture and that instead, teachers need to focus on what they make the students do with that knowledge.
This digital storytelling website is filled with every resource you can imagine. The website documents the research and success stories behind digital storytelling. It breaks the digital storytelling process into four steps, providing websites and program ideas to help you along. It helps you with grant writing, if you feel like you need additional resources to start digital storytelling in your classroom. What I especially appreciate, is the assortment of rubrics provided, so that you have a idea how to grade stories created by your students.
