Barbara's Digital Story


The children at the Expedition UC Links program at Roosevelt Middle School in Oakland started producing their own digital stories in February of 2002. Using the teaching methodology of Joe and Nina at the Center for Digital Storytelling, Expedition’s director, Tamara Sturak, adapted the CDS program to the lower-tech environment at Roosevelt. PowerPoint is the primary tool children use to produce results that delighted all the teachers, friends and family members who attended Expedition’s “Film Festival” at the end of the semester.
