Introduction  \nFor the past several years, digital storytelling has been a major focus in the University of Houston’s College of Education . Faculty members and graduate students in the Laboratory for Innovative Technology in Education (LITE) teach courses, deliver workshops, conduct research, write articles and share presentations at conferences on the many different aspects of how digital storytelling can be used in educational settings (e.g., Dogan & Robin, 2008; Robin, 2008a; Robin, 2008b ; Robin & Pierson, 2005; Robin, White & Abrahamson, 2009; Rudnicki, [et. al](et. al), 2006). This work has included K-12 teachers and their students, undergraduate and graduate students at the university, and college faculty members from different content areas . We also maintain a comprehensive website (Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling [http://digitalstorytelling.coe.uh.edu/](http://digitalstorytelling.coe.uh.edu/)) that reaches educators and students across the globe, as evidenced by a 2010 survey we conducted on the uses of digital storytelling around the world (Yuksel, Robin, & McNeil, 2011) .  \nIn addition, our doctoral students have conducted research and published articles and dissertations that have added to the body of knowledge and our conceptual understanding of how this technology tool can be used to enhance both the teaching and learning experience . Working so intensely on the many facets of digital storytelling has helped us achieve a great deal of practical expertise in how students can be successful at creating educationally meaningful digital stories to support their learning. In this article, we share some of the most important lessons we have learned about digital storytelling that we hope will benefit other educators who may wish to use this technology tool in their own teaching.  \na. What has our research on digital storytelling shown?  \nEven though digital storytelling has been practiced for more than two decades, a limited amount of research has been conducted on this technology, especially as it has been used in educational settings . One of the first doctoral dissertation research studies at the University of Houston on digital storytelling was conducted by Bulent Dogan in 2007 (Dogan, 2007) . In this study, three groups of public school teachers were tracked following their participation in an intensive digital storytelling workshop offered at the university. The three groups, composed of elementary, middle, and high school teachers, learned to create digital stories that they could use in their own classrooms . The teachers completed pre-and three-month-post-workshop surveys that were used to measure and evaluate wh","cbCailRnpUp6kXlI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailRnpUp6kXlI","pdf",1442723,15,"English","# Introduction\n# What has our research on digital storytelling shown?","[{\"question\":\"How is the guidance for digital storytelling organized in the paper?\",\"answer\":\"The guidelines are categorized within the ADDIE instructional design framework, covering analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the paper say about educators’ experience with digital storytelling research?\",\"answer\":\"The authors describe lessons drawn from teaching courses, conducting workshops, writing articles, and supervising graduate student research related to educational uses of digital storytelling.\"},{\"question\":\"What kinds of outcomes did teachers report after using digital storytelling in their classrooms?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers believed their students improved technical, research, presentation, organizational, and writing skills, and they reported positive effects on motivation and engagement.\"}]","What Educators Should Know about Teaching Digital Storytelling - Bernard R.
