  14. ourideas for thestories Reminiscence therapy for people with Alzheimer's and digital storytelling Reminiscence therapy invites a person with Alzheimer's to exercise her long-term memory by encouraging her to share positive memories from younger days. The person with dementia and their families must create some digital storytelling's about positive memories. when people with dementia are confused and agitated  their families can explore the digital stories created with them

  15. Resilience and emotional aspects of women ageing in Peniche – Portugal • Peniche is a fishing area where economic and personal life depends mostly on either fishing activities or manufacturing sector related to it. • Old women told us interesting stories that depict how women live fishing, waiting for fishing boats in the middle of the night, how they care for children and lived their marriage, which reconstruct the way of life of the last eighty years in this city.

  16. Storytelling to promote hope Hope is essential to life. Telling stories is a powerful situation to allow people to explore their own experiences of hope. Sharing positive experiences with others influences others’ perspectives and could turn the negative perspective into a new way of looking the reality. By sharing hope stories, people can play a hope role model for others and have a positive impact on other people’s hopes (Querido, 2012). Querido is a teacher from my school and my PhD student. She use digital stories to promote hope and quality of life in people at end of life with good results
