Digital transformation, which is accelerating in each area of society due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is also having a profound effect on Christian education. A representative example of digital transformation is the emergence of a digital world called the metaverse. This study understands the metaverse as an expanded space for Christian education and explores digital storytelling as a method for faith formation. It is argued that the characteristics of digital storytelling through metaverse spaces are characterized by interactivity, agency, audiovisuality, sociality, and openness, and that modification through Christian educational frames is necessary in order for this approach to be appropriated to Christian educational practice. To this end, this study examines Anne Wimberly's story-linking approach, and Mary Hess' approach on digital storytelling, which is understood as a way of faith formation for the liberation and Christian vocation through storytelling in a digital space, focusing on authority, authenticity, and agency. It is argued that Christian education on the Metaverse should be a place for change in the Christian life and formation of vocation, and a space where participants' active responses to God's grace be practiced in a digital space in a reciprocal way. This means that learners are encouraged to participate in expressive and relational education that is practiced in the form of play and creation, responding to God's initiative in the metaverse. This study argues that for digital storytelling through the metaverse to become a process of faith formation, it is necessary to connect stories of participants with the story of God's Kingdom in the expanded digital world, aim for a reciprocal space through hospitality and listening, and promote immersive participation and holistic reflection.

The purpose of this study is to ermine the effect of digital storytelling as a strategy of programming education to improve students' learning motivation and achievement. To overcome the difficulty of programming education in elementary school and find teaching method which derives the students' motivation, we used a digital storytelling in programming class. Digital storytelling that is considered as an important factor of edutainment gives interest to learners with interaction and stories for programming materials. The result is that elementary school students are more interested in programming and attend actively and their motivation and achievement is improved. Therefore it can gives elementary school students a positive experience with programming that will hopefully contribute to a more positive attitude towards computer science.

Digital storytelling provides students with opportunities to plan and compose a story, and create a storytelling material using various digital technologies. Through digital storytelling activities, students can enhance competencies such as creativity, communication, critical thinking and collaboration, which are required for the digital generation in the future. The purpose of this research was to develop a digital storytelling model that guides students' activities related to the planning of a story and the creation of a digital material. The model classified 4 stages of activities(i.e. 'Preparing Activity', 'Planning and Composing a Story', 'Producing Storytelling Material' and 'Making a Presentation and Evaluating Storytelling Material'), and provided instructional guidances for each stage. Also various forms were presented for story planning, story table, evaluation among students and individual reflection journal.

The present study intends to understand how multimodality can be implemented in a content course curriculum and how students perceive multimodal tasks. Twenty-eight students majoring in English were engaged in a digital storytelling assignment as a part of the content curriculum. Findings from the questionnaire and reflective essays that investigated students perceptions of digital storytelling showed that students felt that the assignment helped them engage in the task and felt motivated. In comparison to traditional writing tasks, students perceived digital storytelling to be more engaging and motivating, but felt that the assignment required more mental effort and caused more anxiety. By supporting students to explore technology and implement multimodal aspects in the learning process, digital storytelling can encourage engagement and autonomous learning to create meaningful works that are purposeful and enjoyable.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a writing education paradigm appropriate for the ideology and ideal persons of Christian universities, and to show the effective application plan. For this, this study utilizes the ideas of digital writing in the concept of digital literacy education. The paradigm of "the digital writing education using bible storytelling" consists of two activities. The first one is 'bible listening and observation,' and the second one is 'media text creation and sharing'. In the first activity, there are two steps: 'listening and observation of bible storytelling' and 'exploration and meditation.' In the second activity, there are also two steps: 'application and action,' and 'sharing in communities.' After the suggestion, this study proposes the application plan for the paradigm. They are 'the utilization of various media and the merit of interaction,' healing effectiveness in an individual and a community,' 'building expertises in both letter writing and Christian education(Divinity),' 'building expertises in both letter writing and media literacy,' and 'expanded application toward diverse patterns of writing.'

As people increasingly access the internet on mobile, the importance of internet ethics and Information Communication(ICE) Ethics has been gradually emphasized in a global society. Therefore it is needed that young students should learn cyber-ethics at school. However, currently there is almost no appropriate ICE-education program for primary school students in Korea. In this paper, we propose an ICE-education program based on digital storytelling. The proposed ICE-education program makes students to learn ICE naturally through the experiences obtained in the process of making their own digital storytelling about ICE. We applied the proposed ICE educational program to the 6th grade students of an elementary school located in Seoul. The result showed that the most participated students have enhanced their scores in participation, respect and temperance among four key elements of ICE.

This study conducted digital storytelling-based programing education targeting students at elementary school and analyzed educational significance as looking into perception on programing, making cognitive-affective assessments and having interviews. The results of the study are provided as follows. First, in terms of ex-post perception, from all the areas of fun, usefulness and ease of use, statistically significant differences were observed. It was also learned that female students have positive perception similar to male students. Second, the ex-ante and ex-post cognitive assessments came up with significant differences. Third, more affectively the class is developed, the number of students who would feel 'happiness' constantly increases. What the study has found there proves educational value of digital storytelling to programing education, and they will be used effectively as basic references for any relevant field to design measures for programing education of students at elementary school in the future.
