Abstract

This paper describes the digital storytelling task applied in speaking class of second year students of English Study Program, including advantages students achieve from storytelling and technology integration as well as suggestions for classroom implementation. The necessity for students to use effective written communication and to be technologically literate remains strong. Meanwhile, English teachers charged with developing these skills are searching for ways to engage students in the writing process and integrate technology into daily learning activities. Digital storytelling aligns with both of these objectives. This strategy invites students into the writing process on a personal level and integrates several technologies into the final project. With careful planning and preparation, digital storytelling present students with a deeply meaningful learning experience. Many students readers and writers, will be highly motivated by the personal nature of storytelling and the integration of technology. An interactive technology can keep the students engaged into the material. As they build their stories, students will be reading for depth and understanding, and gaining proficiency with the vocabulary, structure and pronunciation of language. Finally, students will gain greater competence with technology as they refine their problem-solving skills. Sharing personal stories and engaging in this variety of thinking skills will prove to be a rewarding experience for both teachers and students.
