All kinds of elearning events and training sessions have been going on in my workplace lately. The one I've signed up for this week is 'Digital Storytelling Using Google Maps', which is great because it ties in with our emerging technology course so well. I'm excited. To prepare for the session we've been asked to do a bit of homework. Firstly to look at a couple of examples of stories that use googlemaps:
Agnes' story
Isoble's story
Then we have to write our own story, with these basic instructions:
1. Write a story that connects to places on a map of our region.
2. Create a Google Account
3. Create your story as a map in Google
Write your story
This story will move from place to place. You will connect each place with a paragraph. Each paragraph can have a maximum of 50 words.
To help with planning, write your locations and paragraphs in a table. If you want, you may include an image related to the paragraph too.
Hope mine works out - I'll post the link once it's done.
