Students who create digital multimedia content are focused and highly motivated. In 2005, I started a Digital Authoring Initiative at Glenfield Middle School in Montclair, New Jersey. The purpose of this initiative was to have the students become creators of multimedia content not just consumers. The goal was to take them beyond traditional assignments and learn 21st century skills including: research, collaboration, problem solving and presentation skills. The focus was on two major areas: Digital Storytelling and Podcasting. Digital stories are multimedia presentations which students create by weaving images, music, and voice together. They are able to express understanding, and present situations, experiences, and insights. Stories can be created on a variety of topics including science, social studies and personal or social issues. They revolve around a theme and often contain a particular viewpoint. Podcasts are a powerful communication tools that we are harnessing to improve communication with students, their families and the community. As they are researching information and creating and editing their projects, they are spending a great deal of time with the information: analyzing it, synthesizing it and communicating it. Teachers have embraced this initiative and have noted a significant increase in student engagement, retention and knowledge transfer. This initiative was recently recognized by the New Jersey Department of Education and showcased at "Kid Tech Day 2008". This conversation will focus on best practices, assessment and how the role of the teacher and the student change.
