Topic 2: Digital Storytelling

I am hoping that this post is part 1 of something greater.
The blogged intro to this activity (http://etmooc.org/blog/2013/02/02/introduction-to-topic-2-digital-storytelling/) stresses that the most important part of digital storytelling is the latter part of the term, storytelling.

Digital Storytelling … part 1

Topic 2 in etmooc is digital storytelling. This is another one of those terms that crops up and gets thrown around, yet it is an apt moniker that highlights some of the affordances of digital technology for learning.
