 EXCITE

Knowing the principles of ICT pedagogy integration

is insufficient for effective learning. A successful
technology-supported lesson requires not only a
well-designed plan but also the preparation and
implementation of all necessary tools and materials.
Without proper execution, a plan is meaningless.

 B. Enhancing Language
Skills through Digital
Storytelling
●This language task meets the
demands of today's learners living in
a rapidly changing world with
opportunities and challenges that are
different from the ones many of the
previous generations grew up with.
●Digital storytelling integrates all four macro
skills: listening, speaking, reading, and
writing.
●It caters to modern learners who seek
interactive and technology-driven learning
experiences.
●Language educators must adopt flexible and
innovative teaching methods to develop
students' competencies in the digital age.
 Benefits of Digital Storytelling

• Olivia & Bidarra (2017): Enhances learners'

understanding of real-world experiences.
• Rong & Noor (2019): Improves moral instruction in
kindergarten students and promotes multimodal
literacy.
• Studies in Taiwan & Portugal: Boosts motivation,
problem-solving, and achievement in students.
• Lenette et al. (2019): Valuable for mental health
research and refugee storytelling.
 Digital Storytelling as a Pedagogical Tool

• Encourages learner engagement, reflection,

and project-based learning (McDrury & Alterio,
2000).
• Helps explain complex topics and fosters
problem-solving skills (Gils, 2005).
• Creates meaningful learning experiences by
integrating technology into language
instruction.

story starter is sent to a predetermined class

paragraph to the story.
 Publication Requirements in the
Light of the Digital Age
It should be noted that the development of high-
quality digital learning products and materials
involves a complex combination of expertise in the
subject, knowledge of educational design and
technical skills: photography, audio, video, computer
programming, etc (Wilde, 2004). With the
engagements of all of this, it is essential to be mindful
of the following:
1. Copyright Laws
2. Anti-Bullying Act of 2013
3. Republic Act 110175
 A. Copyright Laws

Copyright Law protects works of

authorship.
According to FindLaw (2020), the
Copyright Act states that works of
authorship include the following types of
works:
Literary works. Novels, nonfiction prose,
poetry, newspaper articles and newspapers,
magazine articles and magazines, computer
software, software documentation and manuals,
training manuals, manuals, catalogs, brochures,
ads (text), and compilations such as business
directories.
Musical works. Songs, advertising jingles, and
instrumentals.
Dramatic works. Plays, operas, and skits.
Pantomimes and choreographic works.
Ballets, modern dance, jazz dance, and mime
works.
Pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works.
Photographs, posters, maps, paintings,
drawings, graphic art, display ads, cartoon strips
and cartoon characters, stuffed animals, statues,
paintings, and works of fine art.
-Motion pictures and other audiovisual works.
Movies, documentaries, travelogues, training
films and videos, television shows, television ads,
and interactive multimedia works.
-Sound recordings. Recordings of music,
sounds, or words.
-Architectural works. Building designs, whether
in the form of architectural plans, drawings, or the
constructed building itself
 FindLaw (2020) further states that Copyright Law is
important for multimedia developers and publishers for
two reasons:

1. Original multimedia works are protected

by copyright. The Copyright Act's exclusive
rights provision gives developers and
publishers the right to control unauthorized
exploitation of their works.
2. Multimedia works are created by combining
"content" music, text, graphics, illustrations,
photographs, software- that is protected under
copyright law. Developers and publishers
must avoid infringing copyrights owned by
others.
 B. Anti-Bullying Act of 2013

Republic Act No. 10627 otherwise known

as the Anti-Bullying Act of 2013 of the
Philippines directs all elementary and
secondary schools to adopt policies to
address the existence of bullying in their
respective institutions.
Bullying refers to any severe or repeated use by one
or more students of a written, verbal or electronic
expression, or a physical act or gesture, or any
combination thereof, directed at another student that
has the effect of actually causing or placing the latter
in reasonable fear of physical or emotional harm or
damage to his property; creating a hostile
environment at school for the other student; infringing
on the rights of the other student at school; or
materially and substantially disrupting the education
process or the orderly operation of a school.
 One of the most common
problems encountered today by
internet users is bullying online
which we call cyberbullying.
 C. Republic Act 110175
This is known as Cybercrime Prevention Act
of 2012 declaring a policy that states that the
State recognizes the vital role of information and
communications industries such as content
production, telecommunications, broadcasting
electronic commerce, and data processing, in the
nation's overall social and economic
development.
