Digital storytelling as student-centred pedagogy: empowering high school students to frame their futures

Abstract: Digital storytelling was used in a high school classroom in the Midwestern USA as a part of the curriculum for "non-university-bound" rural youth. Though described as "unengaged", in this paper we illustrate the way this digital storytelling project redefined the teacher-student power relationship, and students responded by producing work that was opinionated, forceful and demonstrated a thorough engagement with academic practices via technologies. Research demonstrates that teacher expectations impact student… Show more

“…With the rapid proliferation of information and communication technology (ICT), the landscape of traditional classrooms has changed remarkably (Fisher, 2016). In place of teacher-centred approaches, student-centred learning activities (e.g., collaborative and group projects) are, instead, increasingly the primary pedagogical approach taken in physical classrooms (Staley & Freeman, 2017). Amid this change, there emerges a trend for collaborative and active learning space classrooms (CALS) that are technologyenhanced, flexible, and adaptive to a wide range of teaching and learning activities and cater to the students' need to collaborate in groups (Benade, 2017).…”

“…The theoretical model illustrated in Figure 4 follows the narrative turn in psychotherapy, which focuses on the idea that as people go through their lives they internalize and hold dominant stories and beliefs about the social phenomena around them (Carlson, 1997;Staley & Freeman, 2017). These stories are influenced by personal experiences as well as by social stereotypes and dominant public discourses.…”

“…DST assumes that youth are capable of sharing stories and that these stories serve as a catalyst to creativity and meaningful dialogue about issues in their own community (Staley, 2017). DST empowers youth by allowing them to use technology as a medium to capture and share the stories of their lived experiences (Staley and Freeman, 2017). Therefore, we used a modified DS method as a way to create a space for youth to explore their lived experiences to develop their knowledge and exposure to substance abuse within their local community.…”
