I did some research and found this website to be very interesting and informative. I think this site described and define what digital story telling really will and easy to understand.
What is digital story telling?
According to Lambert (N/A), storytelling is story we share with friends, family, and anyone when we came across a story which we remember or wish to share. Digital story telling on the other hand is story that uses computers to create media, which show visual moment or drawing image, to tell a stories which we wish to share or encounter in our daily lives, along with wording communication to represent the media.

I also encounter another site using by educational to tell a digital storytelling. This site defines digital storytelling as a way of practicing using computer tools and experience base computer technology to tell a story.

Many sites suggest using power point to create a digital storytelling because it’s easy and has variety of tools selection to choose from. However, there are many other ways about creating a digital storytelling. But maybe I might use PP because this is the only one I am familiar with.

How do we connect with global education communities?
According to Orlando (2008), Sun Microsystems is one ways to connect with global education. It's a network that create EduConnection.org and OSUM that encourage information and conversation sharing between students and educators.

Whom did you find for students to connect with?
This site, http://generaleducation.appstate.edu/making-local-global-connection, is very interesting because student are able to make connection with other student around the world to learn about each other cultures by exploring each other multiple strategies.
I also found this site, http://pd.tiged.org/, to be very education for teacher to understand about Global Education before connection with student.
How did you find it?
I mostly Googel everything that I want to find by typing what I needed to find. After typing what I want to find, I would go over each site or document or pdf carefully that was showing base on what I want to find before chose the best one.
What are possible conversation points?
This one is a little confusing, after a couple research, and look at a couple blogs from classmate, I agree with Teresa that possible conversation points is conversation that is limitedless for teachers and students. I also think that it is conversation between people about a topic.
How will your students/your connect?
Well, I am not a teacher now but will be in the future. What I saw is that students are connected during class assignment that are assigned by teacher. Also according to some research that I found, I saw that student will connect when the topic is interesting and fun to make their discussion.
Find at least one unique resource to post.
There are many sites that are unique and interesting about global education. the one that I would chose is Sun Microsystems, by Orlando (2008): http://www.prweb.com/releases/sun_microsystems/open_source/prweb1543194.htm

Education Blogs Following for Week Eight:
This week I chose to follow:
http://adifference.blogspot.com/: Sometime listing to someone's making a speech or talks about something that you like can make a difference in your life. I have never hear of TED talks about Mathematics for math teacher. After listing to some of TED talks about Math that was provide in this blog. I found math to be more interesting and fun to learn (No wonder I always like math even until now!).
wiki.wesfryer.com: I don't know if this is only me or anyone too but I found Mac compute to be kind of complicate and hard to used sometime. However, I feel that this blog did an excellent job teaching us to convert text into audio for free. I did on my sister Mac computer and its fun and easy to follow with pictures showing and support every step to follow.
http://kimcofino.com/blog/: I found this blog to be very encouraging and understandable. I like how Blogger, Kim Cofino, used Blog as a tool to facilitate educator and student to utilize their blogs as a tools to share and connect with other and their teacher about what they are learning. I found Cofino's showcase portfolio to be very interesting. I remember taking a class this semester (summer) and have to create a showcase portfolio. How I wish I have saw this blogs earlier, so I can create my showcase portfolio by following her direction in her blog.
