About this Site

The Goals of this Website
The primary goal of the Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling website is to serve as a useful resource for educators and students who are interested in how digital storytelling can be integrated into a variety of educational activities. The site was originally created in 2004 and faculty members and graduate students in the Learning, Design and Technology Program at the University of Houston College of Education continue to maintain the site and add new content.

The EUODS Website in 2004

The EUODS Website in 2008

The Current EUODS Website

Our long term goal is to make the Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling website a comprehensive clearinghouse of information for both those just starting to use digital storytelling as well as for educators, graduate students and researchers who want to deeply explore the many facets of this educational technology tool.

Educational Fair Use
Although we stress to our students that they should try to create their own materials for use in their digital story projects, some of the digital stories contained on this site include still images, audio files and video clips that were found on the Internet using commonly available search engines, websites such as YouTube, as well as from television broadcasts, commercial VHS tapes and DVDs. We hope that these digital stories can serve as examples to educators of how the power of accessible multimedia can be used to engage students in today's K-12 and higher education classrooms and excite them about the possibility of creating their own digital stories.

2013 Announcements

Storytelling: From Oral to Digital
Presented by Public Partnership & Outreach and the College of Education, Department of Teaching, Learning and Culture, Texas A&M University

Through narrative, we learn from experience by reflecting upon experience, declaring what it means, and distilling it into a symbolic form to be expressed and remembered. Digital storytelling integrates oral storytelling with technology. Constructing a digital story requires individuals to organize information, write and utilize technology, but most importantly authors must reflect on experience (Barrett, 2005).

Unlike oral stories that are subject to varying interpretations, digital stories are permanent artifacts capturing a specific moment in time; one telling of an experience that stands as an object for personal reflection and evaluation (Lathem, Reyes, & Qi, 2006).

Workshop Presenters:
Dr. Lynne M. Walters
Dr. Martha R. Green

Date: Wednesday, July 24 & Thursday, July 25, 2013
Time: 9:00 am to 4:00 pm
Location: General Services Complex
Fee: $125.00: Includes curriculum materials & lunch both days
CPE/GT/ESL Credit: 14 hours
Register online: https://secure.touchnet.com/C21490_ustores/web/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCTID=3273

For additional information, contact Dr. Martha Green at mgreen@tamu.edu or 979-862-6700.
Workshop flyer available at: http://worldroom.tamu.edu

Workshop focus:
This workshop will engage participants in the development of a digital story, provide theoretical support for the use of digital storytelling in education and qualitative research, and demonstrate pedagogical approaches for using digital storytelling in the writing and social studies classroom.
Topics include:
* Designing a Digital Story using Audacity & Windows Moviemaker 2.6
* Theoretical and research-based support for Digital Storytelling
* Using Digital Storytelling to teach the narrative writing process and increase voice
* Digital Storytelling as a Qualitative Research Methodology
* Qualitative interview methods
* Digital/visual literacy: using authentic images in storytelling
* Copyright issues in digital video production

Martha R. Green, Ph.D. is a program coordinator for Public Partnership & Outreach, Office of the Provost and Confucius Institute, Texas A&M University, and a lecturer in the Department of Teaching, Learning and Culture. She conducts workshops, does research, and teaches about digital storytelling and documentary development as tools for critical thinking, reflection and transformative learning.

Lynne Masel Walters, Ph.D. is an associate professor in the Department of Teaching, Learning and Culture, Texas A&M University. From 2011-2013, she was a visiting associate professor, Universiti Utara Malaysia. With a doctorate in mass communication from the University of Wisconsin, her research and teaching focuses on media, technology and culture.

Welcome to the 2013 version of the Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling website. This new version has been in development for many months and although it is still a work in progress, I hope that you will find lots of interesting material on the site related to the use of digital storytelling in educational settings. The site is aimed at those just starting to explore this technology as well as long-time users as well as educators and students who are interested in exploring articles and research studies that deal with digital storytelling.

I would like to especially thank several of my colleagues who have helped make this website possible:

Arthur Beltran, who is the chief designer of the website; Rashmi Chhetri, who has cataloged all of the digital stories on the site and made them ready for web delivery; Sara McNeil, who has provided academic, professional and technical support for the website and all of our digital storytelling efforts at the University of Houston; Michael Rapp, who makes sure that the website is accessible 365 days a year;
and all of my current and former digital storytelling students who have contributed much of the content on the website.

And for those visitors who may want to access content from the previous version of the EUODS website, it is still available at: http://digitalstorytelling.coe.uh.edu/archive

If you have any questions or comments about the website, or would like to suggest that additional information be added to the site, please contact me at: brobin@uh.edu

Thanks and happy digital storytelling!

The Academic Phrasebank is a general resource for academic writers. It aims to provide you with examples of some of the phraseological 'nuts and bolts' of writing organised according to the main sections of a research paper or dissertation (see the top menu ). Other phrases are listed under the more general communicative functions of academic writing (see the menu on the left). The resource should be particularly useful for writers who need to report their research work. The phrases, and the headings under which they are listed, can be used simply to assist you in thinking about the content and organisation of your own writing, or the phrases can be incorporated into your writing where this is appropriate. In most cases, a certain amount of creativity and adaptation will be necessary when a phrase is used. The items in the Academic Phrasebank are mostly content neutral and generic in nature; in using them, therefore, you are not stealing other people's ideas and this does not constitute plagiarism. For some of the entries, specific content words have been included for illustrative purposes, and these should be substituted when the phrases are used. The resource was designed primarily for academic and scientific writers who are non-native speakers of English. However, native speaker writers may still find much of the material helpful. In fact, recent data suggest that the majority of users are native speakers of English. More about Academic Phrasebank.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text

Earlier this month we focused on phrasal verbs that are used to describe problems and difficult situations. This week, we're turning our attention to phrasal verbs that describe what we do in difficult situations. Deal with is one of the most common phrasal verbs in this area. If you deal with a problem, you take action that will solve it: When problems arise, it's best to deal with them immediately. Get round ( US get around) is another. If you get round a problem, you succeed in solving it, often by avoiding it: I'm sure we can find a way to get round the problem. / We can always get around the problem of space by building an extension. The phrasal verbs sort out and work out are also used with the meaning of 'take action that solves a problem': It was a useful meeting - we sorted out quite a few problems. / It's a tricky situation, but I'm sure we'll work it out in the end.

Sometimes, for whatever reason, we accept a difficult situation rather than taking action to change it. The phrasal verb put up with is often used with this meaning. (Very often, it's used for bad situations that other people cause.) His behaviour is so bad - I don't know how Maria puts up with it. A similar phrase is live with. If you live with an unpleasant situation over a long period, you accept it: I can't change the situation so I'm just going to have to learn to live with it.

Some difficult or unpleasant situations cannot be changed and the only way to deal with them is therefore to continue to the end. There are several phrasal verbs for this, all ending in 'out'. For example, if you continue to the end of a difficult or unpleasant situation in a determined way, you might say you tough it out or (informal) stick it out: It'll be a difficult couple of months but I'm going to tough it out. / He's finding the course hard, but he's determined to stick it out. Other 'out' phrasal verbs in this area emphasize that you wait patiently for something to end, rather than taking action of any sort. For example, you might say that you wait something out: I'll probably stay here and wait out the storm. A phrasal verb with a similar meaning is sit out: It's not ideal but I guess we'll just have to sit it out.

Here's hoping you don't have too much to deal with or put up with today!
