The study presented in this paper explores the impact that a geographically situated digital storytelling project has on community awareness and engagement. A mixed method, exploratory case study approach was adopted for this study. Data was collected during in-class and fieldwork observations, with self-assessment surveys, open-ended questionnaires, and post-project individual debriefing sessions. Eightythree first year undergraduate students at a rural Japanese university participated in the project. Seventy-nine (n=79) participants completed optional and anonymous self-assessment surveys and questionnaires. The results showed that participants’ community awareness increased significantly after completing the project. Results also indicated that participants believed there was a strong likelihood that they would engage with the local community more in the future. Regarding L2 learning outcomes, data from the self-assessment surveys showed that students believed their English language ability improved alongside an increase in their motivation to study English.
