Digital Storytelling Workshops & Residencies

Program description

Workshops in Story Writing, Animation, Podcasting and Storybook App Creation

Available In Person or Virtual

We have three digital storytelling residency tracts or projects you can do with your students and teachers. Each project is broken down into single workshops. The workshops cover specific content and can be offered for teacher professional development as well as for students. This allows schools to be selective about what they want their students and teachers to learn.

Story Writing, Audio Recording and Podcast Creation Projects

Students write and record their own stories and set them to music and sound effects. We can then publish them to your school’s very own podcast. If you don’t have a podcast, we can create one with you.  If your schools test scores are low in reading and language arts, these workshops are perfect for working on writing and reading skills. You can also tailor your story creation to offer curriculum connections with other subjects like math and science.

 

Animation Projects

Students create their own animation videos with green screen technology. This project tract can also have multiple curriculum connections with art, math, science and music. Don’t worry about technical issues. We bring everything we need including iPads, camera, lights, green screen and everything else necessary to finish the projects.

 

Storybook App Projects

We will write, illustrate and record an original story by your students then turn it into an app for mobile devices. The app will play on any Andriod or Apple device as well as play through the internet on your browser.

 

Visit us online at www.storyship.com or call us so we can tailor make digital story telling projects that help you focus your resources to increase your student’s and teacher’s academic performance.
