Abstract

The focus of this paper is on the analysis of Educational Digital Storytelling Environments (EDSE) using the reference model «Dimension Star» [7]. More specifically, two EDSE were analyzed with the use of this model: (a) Toontastic [6] and (b) Kodu [9] which have been widely used in the educational process. The analysis of these environments showed that the diagrammatic analysis using the above model provides opportunities for easy and quick comparison of essential dimensions of the digital storytelling environments, which is particularly useful for researchers and educators. Finally, the completeness of the model «Dimension Star», as a tool for evaluating digital storytelling software in education, is investigated and possible extensions are suggested.
