Digital Storytelling: Capturing Lives, Creating Communities

This volume contains contextual essays about the history and vision of our work, six chapters that talk about how you might make a digital story and use it for your personal or professional needs, and six chapters that discuss how digital storytelling has been taught and applied. It is both a text book and a teacher's guide. In essence, the book is a long conversation about an idea, the idea of Digital Storytelling in all its current permutations.
