| Abstract | Summary form only given, as follows. The paper engages a discussion of the appearance over the last quarter century of digital technologies which permit individuals and groups to create and share documents which combine cultural and original artifacts in a seamless fashion. Specifically, it focuses on emerging computer-based tools for story telling and uses as a centerpiece "What's my Story?," a set of activities for children aged four and older and their families. In this CD-ROM-based application, children can listen to a re-telling of eight classic folk tales by a storyteller that are illustrated with professional films of the tales. They can take part in a series of exercises in developing storytelling skills led by the storyteller in which the child, children or family construct tales from scenes taken from the classic tales, record their own original story, and mix music and sound effects to enhance their story. They can, as well, construct stories in free form using any of the characters from the tales and others thrown in to encourage deviation from the the classic texts. The activities are accompanied by a coloring book and screen art that allows children or parents to incorporate artifacts from the stories into electronic or printed transcriptions of their tales. Finally, for schools, there is a collection of dozens of activities using standard classroom technology (face paint, flannel boards, construction paper, chalk boards) to extend the activity away from the computer into the mainstream of classroom activity, as well as a deck of character cards which can be used to construct stories without the aid of a computer. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
