The passion for digital storytelling among young students today is there, and growing. As journalists, we should be thrilled not only by that, but also by the fact that children today are embracing primary sources. It’s not enough for them to hear or read about someone doing something. They want to go on YouTube, or Facebook, or the Web, and see it for themselves. They want to see the original video, a copy of the original e-mail, or of the original text message. They’re natural reporters!
