🎧 Episode 2: “From Passive Learners to Active Creators: The Role of Digital Storytelling in Higher Education”

In this episode of Echoes of Learning and Teaching, we shift our focus from passive learning to active creation. Building on the blog post “From Passive Learners to Active Creators: The Role of Digital Storytelling in Higher Education”, we ask: how can digital storytelling enable students to move beyond consuming knowledge and begin creating it themselves?

We’ll explore questions like:

• What happens when students are invited to produce multimedia work – videos, podcasts, interactive media – instead of just writing essays?
• How does digital storytelling foster skills beyond subject-content: creativity, multimodal literacy, peer collaboration? 
• What might assessment and learning look like if the goal is not only to demonstrate what students know, but also what they can create and contribute?

Join us as we imagine a future of higher education where students are not just receivers of information but authors of it — where technology and narrative combine to help learners become active makers, storytellers, and innovators.
