Providing digital storytelling tools for the early childhood and elementary school years has been one of my constantly re-defined aims. The most recent tool I have developed is the Team Story editor, (Turcsányi-Szabó and Pasaréti, 2010) and also teamese.inf. Elte.hu. Children are able to create story actors and backgrounds digitally, as scanned figures or other art crafts (e.g., paper origami). They can easily assemble the story pages using the editor (Fig. 3.9.1 and 3.9.2) and supplement the pictures with a narrative in the form of written or spoken text. Kindergarten groups regularly produced collaborative stories long before computers were introduced. However, the new technology allowed new forms of expression
