Week 12: Creating a Storyboard for my Digital Story

I am working on a story board for the tutoring group I am conducting with my Navy shipmate that started at WVU for my Math for Struggling Learners course because he is having trouble in Trig at 30 years old.

Here is my take on Addressing the seven Elements of Digital Storytelling:
  • Point of View: The story will be told from my point of view as the tutor. It will be an example for other tutors to use in helping others to study in a group. 
  • Dramatic Question: The dramatic question of my story will be "How can a friend help another in tutoring for a course they are struggling to complete?"
  • Emotional Content: This story is about old friends working together again and that will be the level of emotion within the story.
  • Voice: I will be providing the voice and keeping it at a good pace and tone.
  • Soundtrack: I have decided to have an upbeat tone to this story so it follows with the other elements.
  • Economy: I won't have the project completed in time for the story to be told so it shouldn't be to difficult to keep the script brief but to the point.
  • Pacing: I will only have a dozen or so pictures so there will be a good medium of change but without going too fast.

This is a picture of me. I am a graduate student at FSU studying Education.

This is Jessey. We served together in the Navy in the same work center and he started up at WVU this semester. He has Trig and I have a Math education class so I would tutor him for credit in my class while helping him complete his class.


This is an example of the material that Jessey is studying. I have helped him to recognize the important parts of his text and what material is going into too much depth in the chapters. Having other set of eyes to review material has shed some light on his text.



I jokingly used this rum a motivation tool. If we got Jessey's studying completed we could have a few drinks and joke about the bad old days in the Navy.
