Digital storytelling is the process of telling stories in a multimedia platform while foregrounding meaning making (Lambert, 2010).
Talking Points
Discuss communities’ foodways and sharing of recipes as intergenerational knowledge and cultural practices.
Center communities’ foodways as funds of knowledge (Gonzalez, Moll, & Amanti, 2006) and a source of community cultural wealth (Yosso, 2005).
Guiding Questions
What cultural values and practices are embedded in a community’s foodways and their stories? Also, what do their stories reveal about their ways of knowing and being, especially for immigrant communities resettled in a new country?
How can their stories inform culturally sustaining and revitalizing pedagogies?
