Students can benefit from a potent 21st-century educational environment using digital storytelling that takes advantage of their aptitude for and curiosity about computers. Students have the chance to practice project management abilities like planning, multitasking, communication, creativity, tenacity, and collaboration while directing the process of generating a compelling digital story. In order to build and cultivate a pleasant and effective team atmosphere, successful collaboration depends on synchronizing all teammates by creating an atmosphere where they are motivated to contribute and engage. Teammates need to be adaptable enough to function in collaborative contexts where teamwork and social interdependence are prioritized over personalized and competitive aims. Digital storytelling in the classroom can help students strengthen their communication and collaborative abilities. Since it raises students’ interest, it has been referred to as a pedagogical reform and an “effective learning atmosphere to stimulate interaction and co-construction of value” in education. The art of storytelling is regarded as the foundation of digital art. This is so that it may successfully connect with people by integrating many elements of a larger tale. Utilizing internet technology including short videos, graphic art, graphic novel graphics, and motion, it accomplishes this by smoothly fusing together storylines. Digital storytelling and collaboration go hand in hand because effective storytelling should stem from dialogue and audience input. The digital storytelling method is significantly enhanced by teamwork.
