Transmedia Storytelling
In the Sean Rosen series, you learn
about Sean's life from both the books
and Sean's online videos.  

In this hands-on workshop, students
create an original story using both
writing and video, creating a clear
narrative combining the unique
qualities of two very different ways of
communicating.

40 minutes to an hour, in two or three
sessions.

Also available as a one-day
Digital Storytelling Workshop that
focuses on audio and video.

Jeff Baron's school visits are inspiring and entertaining multi-media
presentations. Using his books and videos as a jumping off point, Jeff
focuses on students' own writing, sharing techniques he uses in his own
career as an award-winning playwright, screenwriter and novelist.
All programs are for grades 2-8, in person or on Skype, for reasonable fees.

Presentations are customized based on the group's size, grade level, and English
curriculum. Jeff's original exercises make writing fun.

Here are some of his programs:
"Working with Jeff has been wonderful for the students at
Ardsley Middle School.  They've learned about the process of
writing as well as the effective habits of a real life writer.
Through example, Jeff has taught them about the importance
of research, integrity, and grit in writing."
