Get the Book: Storytelling With Purpose | ISTE Webinar: Oct 3, 2023 from 10:00 to 11:00 (PT)

Michael Hernandez is an award-winning educator and speaker who brings more than 20 years of classroom experience to addressing some of the most existential challenges in education today: artificial intelligence, steep declines in student engagement, and the need for authentic learning experiences. The solution: digital storytelling as a framework for learning.

Rather than viewing storytelling as a nice-to-have reward for students after their “real work” has been completed, this book shows educators how to use story projects — from data visualizations to social media posts, to podcasts and video documentaries — as the scaffold upon which to position curricular skills and knowledge. The process helps students make interdisciplinary connections, activates higher-level thinking and critical analysis skills, and provides multimodal learning opportunities.
