Digital Storytelling Webinar (and Others, Too!)

The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) and Microsoft along with a number of corporate sponsors are offering some free webinars in the next couple of months that might be of interest to you.

Spotlight on Solutions is a new, free webinar series spotlighting the products and services of our ISTE 100 corporate members. The webinars will highlight products offered by our corporate members, demonstrating how they can benefit your district, school, or classroom.

The first one is tomorrow (sorry for the late notice) on Digital Storytelling:

January 26, 2010
1:00 PM Pacific/4:00 Eastern

This webinar will explain how teachers across all K-12 grade levels can use digital images, video and writing to tell compelling stories and synthesize learning. Digital Storytelling is an effective project-based activity that can be applied across the curriculum and is an excellent starting point for teachers that are new at integrating technology in their classroom, as well as providing those teachers who are more adept at technology integration with ways to engage students. The webinar will focus on how Digital Storytelling can improve the writing process, how it enables students to communicate their ideas, as well as understanding the key technologies teachers can use in the classroom to support this activity.
