I found a great site that provides information about digital storytelling, provides accessible links to technological applications (software and hardware that can be downloaded) and edifying tutorials to help the layperson use such applications.
Great rubrics for evaluating digital storytelling are found in the "Evaluation of Digital Storytelling" section of the site. This section also includes rationale and action research results that demonstrate why teachers should employ digital storytelling in their classroom.
The "Resources" section offers some interesting commentary and articles on digital storytelling. If you're looking for some background information to help with this week's assignment, this is a good place to start.
The "Partners" section provides a list of people and organizations who are using digital storytelling. These people may be contacted for information, or to set up pen-pal like story sessions between classrooms - one of a few ideas that I am looking into for this week's assignment.
The section of the site that generated the most ideas for me with regard to how I could use digital storytelling within my classroom is the "Examples" section of the website. This provides examples of stories and really gets the creative juices flowing as one begins to see what can be done and wonder of the endless possibilities for one's own class.
Here's the site:
