THE USE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO MOTIVATE PRIMARY STUDENTS THROUGH STORYTELLING
| Summary: | The use of new technologies to motivate primary students through storytelling This new generation in the 21st century has made me question about how to respond to nowadays’ changes in teaching and how teachers can create an effective and affective lesson with their students. Storytelling is an endless resource to try to motivate students in class but this new generation is more interested into new technologies, so in order to motivate primary students, contribute to moral awareness when students are learning English I felt the need to show a different approach. This project – based storytelling explores the use of storytelling, which includes a traditional English story, adapted towards the students’ learning. Storytelling creates a strong way to teach English as a second language in order to emphasize reading and later on writing but adapted to this new generation through new technologies to motivate students’ interest in class. This project-based storytelling will show a different approach towards the traditional storytelling, using the support of new technologies, which are related to this new generation. Digital photos, common objects such as lego and finger puppets, will be shown on an audio-video retelling the story and therefore motivating students. |
