Digital storytelling for improving mathematical literacy

This paper focuses on the use of digital storytelling in order to improve students’ capabilities be active solvers of real world problems. We present a storytelling model which takes into account both research results for storytelling in pedagogical research and for story problems in mathematics education research, posing them in the PISA framework in mathematics. At the end of the theoretical presentation of the model, a case of use is presented, which is going to be delivered to 13-15 year-old students in the schools of Campania (south of Italy)
