I like Digital Story telling project, because it is new experience for me, it’s not academic, let me remember old happy days and force me to learn a new application on my Mac which is iMovie. Because I have traveled to Auckland, New Zealand, so I didn’t have difficulties to get picture for my project and the picture from the web was from google.com, which allow us to search fast whatever we are looking for. I was interested in telling my story in attracting the attention of watchers; therefore, I rewrote my story several times. The challenge was how to combine the picture I have to fit with my story and find good picture from the Internet fit to my story also. There are many similar aspects between writing an academic essay and DST. First of all, the transaction in the DST is movement and in writing it is words. Second, avoid plagiarism in both of them. The different is DST is alive and writing is boring.

To avoid plagiarism in DST is very easy because you create your own ideas and story from your mind. I used some picture from the Internet and it is not mine so put the like for the picture to have the permission to use the picture. I learned to give credit to the owner of the things. We have learned a lot of plagiarism rules; therefore, it was easier for me to avoid it in DST.
