Abstract
Digital storytelling has potential to motivate students to engage in reflective learning since it uses a range of new technologies and multimedia that are more familiar to young people. The use of visual and audio media offers creative opportunities that can motivate students to develop deeper learning. A structured approach to creating a digital story is essential so that its potential is achieved.
