Storytelling Project
This project will be the culmination of the goal and the project proposed earlier in the quarter. It can range from a written alphabetic text to an audio podcast to a video composed using iMovie or similar software. This project will undergo revision, feedback and will be viewed/read from to the class/publically. Digital storytelling projects can run anywhere from 3-7 minutes; alphabetic genres of storytelling projects should be approximately 6-8 pages. Either storytelling mode should be based on the tradition that you researched, and should include a 2-3 page explanation for how you made decisions for your alphabetic storytelling translated genre of storytelling into multimodal text and to what effect you achieved your goal. In the case of alphabetic academic projects, these texts should be 8 pages
