Draft reaction

I found the article to be well thought out and contain some great ideas. As this is the second linked course I have taken, I am a huge fan of them. They are great and not just because you can get 6 hours in one night, but because the technological component has really stretched me and allowed me to explore options that I would never have come up with on my own. I believe digital storytelling should be a required element of teaching in today's schools. Every teacher education student should have to take this class. My wife has started using them after I shared Dr. Robin's fantastic instructional resources for creating digital stories. I believe that you could teach a linked course with any subject and digital storytelling so it is a great IT course that is easily integrated into every other program.
