Abstract
The present dissertation focuses on whether digital storytelling can enhance the learning process in Preschool Education (Kindergarten) and in particular in thematic units related to folk tales (folk culture). In the theoretical context, the importance of folk culture, the characteristics and the importance of the storytelling of the folk tale in the Kindergarten are examined, while at the same time the introduction of ICT is approached in the form of digital storytelling in Primary School Education as an innovative teaching tool. Simultaneously, some learning theories that assist and are related to the introduction and use of Information and Communication Technologies, generally in education, are also analyzed. In the research context, using a guided research project, the attitudes and perceptions of teachers regarding the use of ICT, especially in the form of digital storytelling, are explored in the Kindergarten. Subsequently, the benefits emerging from digital storytelling for students are examined, such as the enhancement of their oral and written speech, collaborative learning, and computer literacy.
