Abstract

Our age is unquestionably characterized by the dominance of technology and digital media in all manifestations of human action. Inevitably, the debate over the use of these media becomes more intense in areas that are extremely important for the intellectual development of man, such as the field of culture and education. This reality leads educational systems to adapt curricula to new developments, so that digital media is now a key educational tool for many courses. Especially in the subject of history and especially of local history and folklore, digital storytelling can be the connecting link between the old and the new. This can be very helpful when the lesson plans are aimed at bringing students in touch with cultural heritage, both material and intangible. The present study aims to show that digital storytelling can be used creatively in teaching a local history and folklore course.
