Story Telling for Cultural Knowledge Sharing

We present the development of learning resources using multiple contributors. The resources are to assist learning a specific set of cultures, those of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Australia, using stories uploaded onto a web site. The work is aimed at cultural preservation through non-linear digital stories, and re-presenting it in educational settings. By enabling the community contributors to tag their artefacts according to themes, relationships, location and language we can provide a way for the learner-user to select relevant stories to their learning experience. The three learning environment interfaces, combined with the contributor's tagging of their story, provides the interconnection between stories and the learning path for the users.
