Digital Storytelling Articles

What Makes a Good Story?by Chris King
http://www.creativekeys.net/StorytellingPower/article1004.html

This particular article was on the same site of one of the other articles I read. Eventhough it is not an article about DS, it is an article about storytelling. Here are 7 tips on how to storytell. Some of these would apply to DS in education and in health education.

A good story is one that touches people in some way.
A good story has to have substance.
A good story needs conflict and resolution.
A good story creates vivid images.
A good story is not “wimpy.
A good story is the story that is perfect for your audience.
A good story is a story that you love and love to tell.

  1. Tatiana,
    I like the key points you stated because while I was searching for articles, I came across an excerpt of a book that also listed the 7 tips as well as other points such as a nice voice, and personal feelings that will make a good DS.
    A good story is always remembered!
