Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Digital storytelling is a technology-integrated form of storytelling that uses multimedia tools to bring narratives to life. This classroom-based action research study explored the implementation of digital storytelling in social studies lessons for Year 5 pupils in a primary school in Brunei Darussalam. The pupils’ performance was analysed to test the hypothesis that digital storytelling enhances learning. Pupils’ exit cards, feedback forms, and interview sessions were used to gather their perspectives on using digital storytelling for social studies learning. The findings indicated an improvement in pupils’ performance based on their test scores. The quantitative and qualitative data collected provided valuable insights for the teacher on how she could further improve her teaching practices beyond her teacher education training programme.
