Digital Storytelling i Kronoby
10 nya berättelser fick se världens ljus då workshopen i digitalt berättande avslutades i Kronoby i tisdags. Edu-Arena stod för workshopen, som var gratis för lärare och andra inom utbildningsvärlden, och deltagarna samlades från Purmo i söder till Karleby i norr i en fantastiskt fin och engagerad grupp. Med lite tur har vi möjlighet att se  någon berättelse dyka upp på nätverket för digitalt...

Hemma igen
10 dagar och nästan 100 km senare är jag hemma igen. Efter att ha varit fullständigt utan uppkoppling och kontakt med omvärlden under resan har jag svårt att sammanfatta så här i efterhand. Inger och Algot Carlson var mina omhändertagande guider, som imponerade på mig med en fantastisk kondition, fantastiskt engagemang och fantastiska projekt. De tolkade mina önskemål fullständigt rätt...

Digitalt berättande på G18
Det var främst lärare och journalister som intresserade sig för digitalt berättande i Helsingfors då Axxells folkhögskola arrangerade en tvådagars workshop på G18 9-10 november.  Eftersom workshopen går ut på “learning by doing” är målet att varje deltagare skapar sin egen berättelse för att lära sig metoden, få kontroll över verktygen och också få erfara processen. Ett ofta använt...

Opettaja-Lehti lyfter fram digitalt berättande →
I senaste numret av Opettaja-Lehti lyfts digitalt berättande upp som en av de bästa metoderna för att påverka genom media, inte minst för unga. Artikeln av Heidi Myllymäki är gjord under St Michels temadag för deltagande och påverkan i media, där de unga kunde välja mellan 15 olika workshops. Digitalt berättande var en av dem, och under tre och en halv timme skapades fem ställningstagande digitala...

Stories from Kaupungin Kangas →
Digital stories from the two workshops in  Jyväskylä from the beginning of April can now be found here. Our theme in both workshops was Kaupungin Kangas; an old factory area in the city, for which new, big visions are made with the help of the citizens. Fictional stories on the factory area, stories about “a place that makes me happy” and “a day in my life” are only some of...

Place-based digital storytelling (and other kinds of storytelling) from all around the world on PlaceStories. A good-looking site with a big amount of material, although the map looks a little bit empty. How can these kinds of sites get material from all over the world, and not only from Australia? Is it even possible? I love the idea of an international map so filled with projects, cards and...

A new kind of electioneering? →
It’s soon time for the Finnish parliamentary election, and there has been a big discussion about the electioneering. Maybe Digital Storytelling could be the next tool for the politicians? It’s cheap, it’s powerful, it’s digital, it’s emotional and it’s personal. This story is made by Renee Harding about her recovery from substance abuse as part of the Better...

Jag nämnde Glynda Hull och det globala nätverket för barn och ungdomar, space2cre8. Jag håller som bäst på att skapa en internet baserad ordkonstskola för ungdomar i skärgården, och känner mig väldigt inspirerad av Space2cre8. Hur kunde man skapa ett koncept som inte bara går ut på att skriva, utan att vara kreativ och uttrycksfull inom alla möjliga genrer? Hur skulle man kunna utnyttja nätverkets...

The future is interactive →
Is there a future for storytelling? And what does it look like? Well, it might look like Storming Juno, which is an example that needs no further presentation. It’s just awesome. But even more awesome is that the making of these kind of stories will be able for me and you, also, in the future. Bjarke Myrthu, previously co-founder of Magnum in Motion, presented this tool for us in...

Be creative. Make the future. This is an inspiring but yet so realistic story on being creative, but also about a real project, a book not yet done. This and a whole lot of other creative stories, projects, ideas and movies are to be found on Kickstarter, the largest funding platform for creative projects in the world. And the best part? It is not only for inspiration. You can also create your own...

Patient Voices is Pip Hardy’s huge project on Digital Storytelling in medical helth. Pip Hardy was one of the keynote speakers on the conference in Lillehammer, and had an extremely sympathetic presentation of her work. It’s not hard to imagine that everyone involved in the medical health can be in need of telling their own story. And even better, if stories like these actually can...

An interactive story made in youtube. You direct the character, and it’s up to you if you can stay out of violence. So realistic, I don’t dare to choose the weapon, not even out of curiosity.
