Abstract

The chapter presents three cases in which digital storytelling was used in an unconventional way: in helping an immigrant student to integrate into the school environment, in helping first-grade students' school adjustment, and in dealing with bullying. The constructivist principles concerning the learning process and the requirement of students' active participation provided the necessary framework. The researcher avoided intervening, guiding or lecturing students. All cases were short in duration and easily applied. Results confirmed the author's belief that digital storytelling is a powerful and flexible tool that can be used in many and diverse educational or non-educational scenarios.
