Abstract: Digital storytelling has the power to transform learners. This transformation occurs through the intersection of self and technology. This paper examines the role of digital storytelling strategies to create a space in which the student can learn, heal, and create. What learners appear to gain from the preparation and delivery of digital storytelling can only be described as therapeutic. The larger implications within adult education for these findings are approaches to teaching and learning that connect learners to their own lives and to the processes that lead to their productive participation within society.
