I got to watch the videos of Nancy, Sam, Keri, Alli, Robin, and Sarah.
Some of the concepts were really cut and dry, and didn't seem like they would be very fun for the students to make or watch.
There were some videos that had good concepts behind them, and could have been extended even more with the help of the students. There was some real creativity to go into it.
I think the most difficult thing about implementing digital story ideas will be getting the students excited about the project. It is obviously very easy to do, and there are countless opportunities to create digital stories. However, some students might not buy into it as much as others, or they might be afraid to use the computer. I believe with the right context of the class, students would love doing digital stories.

I am writing my comment here because there is no place to do it under your video. I liked the way you organized your video--the effect of the still pictures changing while you talked made it seem like a recorded video, which is probably a lot easier for kids to deal with when they are just learning how to work with technology.
