  • The Power of Digital Storytelling to Support Teaching and Learning
    The Power of Digital Storytelling to Support Teaching and Learning Bernard R. Robin [email protected] University of Houston, USA Abstract Although the term “digital storytelling” may not be familiar to all readers, over the last twenty years, an increasing number of educators, students and others around the world have created short movies by combining computer-based images, text, recorded audio narration, video clips and music in order to present information on various topics. For more than twelve years, faculty members and graduate students in the Learning, Design and Technology Program at the University of Houston College of Education have been exploring the use of digital storytelling to support both teaching and learning. In 2004, the author established the Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling website (http://digitalstorytelling.coe.uh.edu) to serve as a helpful resource for those interested in learning how digital storytelling could be integrated into a variety of educational activities. This paper presents an overview of how digital storytelling has and continues to be used to support teaching and learning activities. In addition, recommendations and guidelines are presented for educators who would like to teach students to use digital storytelling as an educational endeavor. Keywords Digital Storytelling, Educational Technology, Teaching, Learning, Multimedia B.R. Robin 17 Digital Education Review - Number 30, December 2016- http://greav.ub.edu/der/ The Power of Digital Storytelling to Support Teaching and Learning I.

Dar- über hinaus lernen Sie die Kommandozentrale kennen: die Shell. Außerdem können Sie einen Blick in das vollständige Inhalts- und Stichwortverzeichnis des Buches werfen. »Was ist Linux?« »Installationsgrundlagen« »Audio und Video« »Die Shell« »Software- und Paketverwaltung« Inhaltsverzeichnis Index Der Autor Leseprobe weiterempfehlen Michael Kofler Linux – Das umfassende Handbuch 1.430 Seiten, gebunden, mit CD, 14. Auflage 2015 49,90 Euro, ISBN 978-3-8362-3775-8 www.rheinwerk-verlag.de/3855 “buch” — 2015/11/5 — 21:54 — page 25 — #19 1 Kapitel 1 Was ist Linux? Um die einleitende Frage zu beantworten, erkläre ich in diesem Kapitel zuerst einige wichtige Begriffe, die im gesamten Buch immer wieder verwendet werden: Betriebs- system, Unix, Distribution, Kernel etc. Ein knapper Überblick über die Merkmale von Linux und die verfügbaren Programme macht deutlich, wie weit die Anwendungs- möglichkeiten von Linux reichen. Es folgt ein kurzer Ausflug in die Geschichte von Linux: Sie erfahren, wie Linux entstanden ist und auf welchen Komponenten es basiert. Von zentraler Bedeutung ist dabei natürlich die General Public License (kurz GPL), die angibt, unter welchen Bedingungen Linux weitergegeben werden darf. Erst die GPL macht Linux zu einem freien System, wobei »frei« mehr heißt als einfach »kostenlos«. 1.1 Einführung Linux ist ein Unix-ähnliches Betriebssystem. Der wichtigste Unterschied gegenüber historischen Unix-Systemen besteht darin, dass Linux zusammen mit dem vollstän- digen Quellcode frei kopiert werden darf. Ein Betriebssystem ist ein Bündel von Programmen, mit denen die grundlegend- Betriebssystem sten Funktionen eines Rechners realisiert werden: die Schnittstelle zwischen Mensch und Maschine (also konkret: die Verwaltung von Tastatur, Bildschirm etc.) und die Verwaltung der Systemressourcen (CPU-Zeit, Speicher etc.).
