What is digital storytelling?  Digital Storytelling applies computer-based tools to traditional storytelling using images, music, video, text, and narration to express a point of view. Rooted in the foundation of the storytelling process, digital storytelling allows the author to further express his or her story in a digital medium. Just as a playwright tells his or her story on a stage, or a writer creates a story to be told on film, digital storytelling is an extension of the writing process.

PhotoPeach is a very basic digital story telling tool. It allows the creator to upload pictures and add a sub title to each slide. There is a quiz option too for a fun new way to give a quiz. This is the easiest storytelling tool we have found so far and everyone we have used it with has loved it!
