      As important, give them a reason to care. Earlier you say "We need to help them see why they should be engaged" that feeling why we should is hard to transmit, so instead we need to inspire, make them feel compelled to investigate and learn. 
  • Second, we spoon feed our students too much.

      Authors of "Engaging Minds" recommend designing learning experiences that provide "liberating constraints"-- that is, situations with optimal structure AND ambiguity, that cause the student to question, interpret and customize their investigation and arrive at something significant and personally meaningful.

      Getting kids to see "why they should be engaged" is hard-- We need to set up the conditions where they feel compelled to learn. Starting the course of study with an engaging entry event can ignite that need to know. BIE arranges their PBL units around this idea-- Entry event + Driving Question are the set up, from there kids take the ball and run.

      Yep! This is risky for a lot of teachers. Their inclination is to intervene when things get messy. It's tempting but better to support kids through their struggle rather than remove the struggle.

    Digital storytelling refers to a short form of digital media production that allows everyday people to share aspects of their life story. "Media" may include the digital equivalent of film techniques (full-motion video with sound), animation, stills, audio only, or any of the other forms of non-physical media (material that exists only as electronic files as opposed to actual paintings or photographs on paper, sounds stored on tape or disc, movies stored on film) which individuals can use to tell a story or present an idea.

    "Digital Storytelling is the modern expression of the ancient art of storytelling. Throughout history, storytelling has been used to share knowledge, wisdom, and values. Stories have taken many different forms. Stories have been adapted to each successive medium that has emerged, from the circle of the campfire to the silver screen, and now the computer screen."

    Integrating digital storytelling with instruction becomes a creative opportunity for both novice and technologically experienced educators when using Jason Ohler's Digital Storytelling in the Classroom. Ohler links digital storytelling to improving traditional, digital, and media literacy, and guides teachers on how to empower students to tell stories in their own native language: new media and multimedia. Aligned with NCTE standards and covering important copyright and fair use information, this text provides information on integrating storytelling into curriculum design and using the principles of storytelling as a measurement of learning and literacies. Implementation tips and visual aids abound, giving teachers an exciting new resource.

        Storytelling is an age-old art form. With Web 2.0 and the tools already available on most computers, students can use text, music, sound effects, videos, and more to create a multimedia presentation that links them to the world beyond the classroom. Storytelling has the potential to unleash creativity, engage, and motivate. Applicable across the curriculum, digital storytelling teaches students to work collaboratively and use new technologies, skills they will be required to have in the workforce of the future. This book offers an overview of digital storytelling as well as its variations, including e-portfolios, digital photo essays, and scrapblogs. The many recommendations, overviews, and explanations of digital storytelling tools, along with lists of additional digital storytelling resources, will help educators to apply this exciting technology in their classrooms.

Digital Storytelling Guide for Educators provides detailed directions to preparation, production, and presentation, and rounds out with a discussion on creating rubrics and evaluating student work.
