Living and Learning in Central Oregon

This a cool little program that allows users to create a timeline and display it in many different ways – regular timeline view, list view, flipbook or map. Here is a timeline I found for the show LOST.

I’ve been doing some surfing around on the web looking at resources for digital storytelling and came across three useful tools that teachers can use and kids can use:  Voicethread, Digital Storyteller, and Scratch.  I am sure there are many more, MS Photostory being one.  But no matter which is used I find the art of digital storytelling very appealing in the classroom and a process that supports, encourages, and teaches 21st Century skills.  Each of the sites above offer a different flavor to their digital storytelling method, approach, and service.  I was particularly intrigued by Voicethread because it seems very easy to use and is kind of like a audio blog to elicit comments from readers.
