Digital storytelling and storytelling practices hold the promise of being democratic, accessible, and empowering for their creators. Offering a chance for this community of practice to meet with a skills workshop will allow our teaching community to deepen or become familiar with an inclusive teaching strategy that helps build digital literacy; research and argumentation skills; and effective, persuasive advocacy techniques. Instructors might incorporate digital storytelling assignments into a course or offer them as alternatives to writing, following the principles of Universal Design for Learning.

In these online sessions, we will explore the inclusive teaching technique of digital storytelling. Join Cornell faculty who will showcase assignments, practices, and formats, across a range of disciplines.

The sessions will run from noon to 1 p.m., so feel free to bring your lunch.
