“…Three of the 10 most-cited articles were found to be in the field of language teaching (Hafner & Miller, 2011;Hull & Katz, 2006;Nelson, 2006), indicating the importance attached to digital storytelling in language teaching. Other studies have shown that digital storytelling can improve the language skills of study participants (Güvey-Aktay, 2020;Tabieh et al, 2021;Yang et al, 2020). This finding was also supported in the meta-analysis conducted by Özkaya (2020), which concluded that digital stories can highly affect the development of Turkish language skills.…”

Digital storytelling is a method often preferred in the education process in terms of its appeal to different senses by creating a multimedia environment, and it may also be used in the development of language skills as it often includes both textual and audio elements. The current study investigates the research trends of digital storytelling, which is one of the methods recently preferred for education and for Turkish language skills development, through an examination of the Web of Science (WoS) database. The study was designed as a descriptive study. Data obtained from 545 academic works published within the context of the study were subjected to bibliometric analysis according to six categories; number of articles and citations, most-cited articles, most-used keywords, most influential countries, most influential institutions, and most influential journals. The study also presents bibliometric network maps of the most-cited articles, most-used keywords, as well as the most influential countries, institutions, and journals. The bibliometric analyses and network maps were performed using the VOSviewer_1.6.16 program. The results of the study show that digital storytelling is a method currently preferred in education. It is thought that examining the global trends of studies undertaken on digital storytelling in education will help to guide researchers looking to work on this subject in Turkish language education or in other fields of education.

“…On the one side, web-based storytelling platforms can be a valuable resource for teaching students how to create descriptive audiovisual storytelling. Storybird (https://storybird.com, (accessed on 10 October 2023), Storyjumper (https://www.storyjumper.com, (accessed on 10 October 2023), and Mixbook (https://www.mixbook.com, (accessed on 8 October 2023) are among the most prominent and common-in-use platforms intentionally crafted to streamline the process of story creation and sharing [3]. These platforms boast an extensive selection of templates and user-friendly tools which enable individuals to craft and embellish their unique narratives [4].…”

Digital storytelling and generative artificial intelligence (AI) platforms have emerged as transformative tools that empower individuals to write with confidence and share their stories effectively. However, a research gap exists in understanding the effects of using such web-based platforms on narrative intelligence and writing self-efficacy. This study aims to investigate whether digital story creation tasks on web-based platforms can influence the narrative intelligence and writing self-efficacy of undergraduate students. A pretest–posttest comparison study between two groups was conducted with sixty-four undergraduate students (n = 64), majoring in Primary Education. More specifically, it compares the effects of the most well-known conventional platforms, such as Storybird, Storyjumper, and ZooBurst (control condition), and generative AI platforms, such as Sudowrite, Jasper, and Shortly AI (experimental condition) on undergraduate students, with an equal distribution in each group. The findings indicate that the utilization of generative AI platforms in the context of story creation tasks can substantially enhance both narrative intelligence scores and writing self-efficacy when compared to conventional platforms. Nonetheless, there was no significant difference in the creative identity factor. Generative AI platforms have promising implications for supporting undergraduates’ narrative intelligence and writing self-efficacy in fostering their story creation design and development.

“…There have been some previous studies related to the objective of this study, which will help to better understand the present research. The first study was conducted by Güvey (2020), who developed research to investigate the use of digital folktale writing activities as a means of writing expression on the opinions of pre-service teachers. By the end of the project, the results evidenced that the use of digital story writing improves the teachers' written expression skills, the correction of spelling mistakes, the correct use of punctuation, and gain awareness of the meaning of words.…”

The present research is about improving collaborative writing skills enhancement through the use of StoryJumper. The work aims to know the impact of using StoryJumper as a technological resource implemented to develop the EFL students’ collaborative writing skills. The sample was 27 English students who were enrolled in the second year of Bachillerato in a public institution of Loja. These students were divided randomly into two groups; the experimental and the control group. It was an experimental study aided by a qualitative and quantitative analysis through the use of pre-tests, post-tests, class observations, and student surveys. The instruments used to gather the data were a writing placement test, a writing achievement test, a rubric, an observation sheet, and a questionnaire. The data obtained helped to know the effectiveness of using StoryJumper in collaborative narrative writing and the students’ perceptions of using this platform. Finally, the findings revealed that the students reached a good improvement in the development of their narrative writing skills in addition to their remarkable motivation for the practice and development of their collaborative writing skills after the use of the StoryJumper.
