Post #1 – Stories of the Night Sky

http://www.storiesofthenightsky.ca/stories.htm

 

During my research on language preservation my webquest touched on digital storytelling. I came across the Stories of the Night Sky website which brings together Indigenous youth and elders through technology. Here, Elders tell stories first-hand about Turtle Island using youth as the gatherers of today’s technology to make the stories both relevant and contemporary. The creators of the website want this to help understanding of cultural differences and how modern-day society has changed and molded our perceptions of the world in which we live. “We all share the night sky; we all have this in common”.
