This research project examines how digital storytelling
provides safe space for creative expression. The foundation for this
argument is established through a literature review that describes how
the process, facilitation, and ethics of digital storytelling affect
safe space for creative expression. This rationale is examined through
interviews with expert digital storytelling facilitators and experienced
digital storytelling participants to construct a conceptual framework
for this argument based on perspectives in the field. The goal of this
research project is to evince how digital storytelling methods are a
model for adult arts education programs that engage adults who have
little creative confidence in creative expression.
