This chapter describes the software and an equipment educator use when teaching digital storytelling and provides explanation for why they prefer them to other options. Since most digital storytellers know little about their feature topic, conducting research from multiple venues and source types is important. They need a tool that is flexible, portable, and shareable. Although a notebook or clipboard offers a time-honored solution, the risk of losing the notes or not allowing others access to them are concerns. Digital storytellers tend to use Google Docs in conjunction with face-to-face meetings to write their entire group projects, including the community history paper, introductory video script, and feature public history digital storytelling script. Although most digital story software provides the option to record, educators encourage digital storytellers to use the free program, Audacity, to record and edit their voiceovers. For some digital storytellers, choosing the best soundtrack is complicated and time-consuming.
