Digital Picture Books This project uses the concept of picture book creation with a technology approach. Students center a story on a curricular theme, write a fictional story (using storyboarding, drafting and revision), create original artwork and then use Microsoft Powerpoint for the publishing platform. They have the option to add audio narration, animation and even embedded video into their picture books.
