In addition to accessing OER on Wikipedia, you could also use a search engine such as Google search engine or DuckDuckGo search engine to access information. You could look for information by simply typing in Digital Story Telling in the search bar of the search engine; shown below are examples of how a search for "Digital Story Telling" would look like.

The search engine will retrieve web pages for your topic that are both OER and non OER and you need to check each result you want to use, if it is  OER.

As a part of this toolkit, we have developed a concept map on digital story telling.  Concept maps can be stored on your folders; they are saved with an extension ".mm". We have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling.mm and saved it on our folder for text resources as part of the personal digital library for digital story telling.  The extension .mm stands for mindmap. Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes.

You should practice inserting a note for any one of your nodes in your concept map, following these steps.  In this manner, your concept map OER can provide notes for each node, to provide richer and more detailed information for that node. (Advanced tip – If you export your concept map as a ‘odt’ or ‘doc’ text file, your note will be added to the section created for the node).

The aim here is to get you started with concept map OER creation using Freeplane. For advanced functions, you should refer to the User Manual for the application. The Freeplane tutorial is available within Freeplane itself, which you can access anytime by pressing the F1 function key.

It is sometimes useful to create sections in a document to allow for east reading and referencing.  This can be done using the <u>Styles--->Styles</u> and formattingoption.  Select the text you want to mark as a section and then go to the Select the heading level (Heading 1, 2, 3, etc) you want to set it at.  Headings can be at multiple levels to indicate sub-points.  You should create similar section headings in your document.{{clear}}
