The third MassIMPACT Spreading the Stories three and 1/2 day digital storytelling train-the-trainer workshop is hosted graciously by Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción (IBA) and the El Batey Technology Center of the Villa Victoria housing development in the South End of Boston. It is the first of two workshops Danielle Martin facilitated in the spring 2007 in the South End, trying to foster some local working groups of digital storytelling facilitators. Based on an initial partnership with David Kay of IBA and Giles Li of Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center (BCNC) the workshop strove to bring together interested organizations in incorporating digital storytelling into their existing youth and adult programs. It also included community workers at the Castle Square Technology Center, MassHOusing staff and staff from Mandela Residents Cooperative Association. For more insights on this workshop, check out Danielle's blog.
The workshop curriculum was based on the model created by Natasha Freidus of Creative Narrations in 2005-6.
