THING 4: Digital Storytelling

So I'm reading about Digital Storytelling and I'm wondering if this wouldn't be a great way to showcase what I'm doing with my 4th/5th/6th graders on their yearlong peace project.  I did a presentation at a local college about this project, and one of the participants asked me if I was documenting what I was doing.  Of course, I'm not, but what a great idea.  When I was looking over the information on Digital Storytelling, I looked into "Exposure" and thought that might be a great site to showcase what I'm doing here at school.  I will look into this more during our Winter Break.
Thing 3:  Social Media

Just realized that the "bird symbol" means Twitter.  Who knew?
THING 3:  Social Media

Just watched video, "Why are you Still Not on Twitter" and I seriously think I'm not on Twitter because I don't have one of those fancy phones that can do that.  My phone is not attached to the internet, so I don't think I can tweet.  I really just have my phone for making calls (and texting - I do do that).  Anyway, watched this video and I have no idea what they are talking about.  I mean, what does "drag message" even mean?  However, I do understand how cool tweeting can be and how it really does connect you with everyone.  My dinosaur phone really does need to be replaced.  I'll have to work on that.
