Hi everybody. Last module with my beloved 2M also included the activity of cooperative storytelling by working in groups of 4. The lecturer Mrs Benedetti gave the students a paper with some prompts and they had to answer some questions and write down a story.
To end up the activity I decided to try using some apps to make the stories digital. With this class I don’t use the wi-fi in class yet nor the BYOD mode. I posted in their LMS Schoology the suggested apps and some tutorials.
- Shadow Puppet for ipad
- Booker that I used quite a lot in the past and students find very easy
- Storyboard I had never used before
- Picture a Story but nobody has chosen it as they found it not flexible
Here’s their works. Since it’s a Liceo Linguistico and students don’t do anything digital in other subjects nor have classes of computer science, we are very proud of their achievements! Well done!! 🙂

During then lesson, the students presented their stories orally to the class as you can see in the photos below. You can also see Francesca, Marika & Paola’s story The Red Bow 1 & 2. Last but not least also Giulia & Gaia‘s The Betrayal.
Here’s Tommaso’s and Stefano’s Booker. The STolen Diamond
Giulia and Maria instead made short videos using Shadow Puppet. HOLY TERROR!
Last but not least this is the story by Nicole & Giulia.
And here’s my girls while presenting:
It’s just the beginning and we’ve got a lot to learn and improve but we’ve learnt lots of new things while having fun! Hope you’re proud of what you’ve done!
