The Next Step

Looks like we have a good mix of topics and they all sound interesting :) 

People, plz do read your classmates' ideas and give them your comments. They will appreciate it. 

For all groups, the next step is to work on your digital story.  


These are the guidelines:

• The digital story must have a combination of  narration (voice), pictures and captions. 
• Duration - 8 - 10 minutes

You can start by coming up with the story board by deciding on the following:

• What are you going to say? Write out the script.

• What pictures do you need? What videos (if any) are you including? Source for the pictures and videos (if using).

For examples of digital stories (personal ones), you can visit this website: http://mcli.maricopa.edu/storytelling/examples

Do have fun working on your digital story!

Title of our digital story is '' Malaysian Dance: A Cultural Expression''

      Our reason for selecting this topic is because it is an interesting topic to present as a digital story. It doesn't require much field work and reduces cost at the same time because the sources for this topic is unlimited.

      This digital story is being made to introduce various dances related to different kinds of races in Malaysia and also to display the differences between the dances in Malaysia. We also want to educate or raise awareness about our dances among our Malaysians.

       Introduction of the digital story will display Malaysians as a whole. We would like to talk about the different races in Malaysia and their norms before going into our topic.

       At first, we will start with the Malay dance. There will be differents types of Malay dances introduced in general followed by the Chinese dance and Indian dance. A brief history or origin of the dances will be the core of the narration.

       For the conclusion part, ''One Malaysia dance'' will be the ending to show the assimilation of the 3 major races in Malaysia through dance.
