Storyboard That
Storyboard That is a site I learned of through one of my students, and is a site I would like to incorporate into more student projects. It essentially lets students create a comic book presentation about anything. They can choose from different backgrounds, and based on storyboards set in 18th Century Colonial America my students have made, the possibilities are vast, if not endless.
The project my students have used this for so far is a social studies vocabulary project. Rather than just write out definitions and memorize terms for a vocabulary quiz, students are required to apply their words through a story/comic book, illustrated dicitonary, or word association webs. Some students have created beautiful comics using PowerPoint, but the comics created through Storyboard That look like professional comics.
