Abstract

<abstract> <title>ABSTRACT</title> <p>Digital storytelling is a method of using storytelling, group work, and modern technology to facilitate the creation of 2–3 minute multi-media video clips to convey personal or community stories. Digital storytelling is being used within the health care field; however, there has been limited documentation of its application within occupational therapy. This paper introduces digital storytelling and proposes how it can be applied in occupational therapy clinical practice, education, and research. The ethical and methodological challenges in relation to using the method are also discussed.</p> </abstract>
