Welcome to my page!

My name is Christine Hahn and I am a wearer of many hats. I am a new Mom, a soon to be wife,and a pursuer of education just trying to find her way in this world. I love to travel as much as possible, to eat deliciously fattening foods, spend time with my family (sometimes!), make my son laugh until he can hardly stand it, and sky dive in gorgeous places.

I have created this blog as an assignment for a college course I am taking. I am doing this in effort to learn how to better understand the technology that is available to us and to be an effective teacher for my future students. I hope to one day be teaching in an elementary school setting, somewhere between kindergarten and third grade. I have a love for computers but very minimal experience working with blogs, html, etc. I hope that through this class I will gain a better understanding of how this all works so that I can eventually teach it to someone else.. clearly! :)

Happy trails!

Digital Storytelling

Digital storytelling is a tool that you can use in the classroom for a variety of things. You can compile class photos from the school year in a story board and show it off to everyone at the end of the year. You can also use it as a teaching tool for a lesson, such as history. After playing with a story board application for a bit it seems that you can really do quite a bit with it and it is almost like an electronic book, how neat!

There are some great website online that you can find that are great resources for how to compile a digital storyboard if you are confused on how to do it. Some of these sites are:
