Bitstrips
Posted on June 20th, 2008 by monibuns
I love bitstrips.com. I can see this website being used in every subject. The students can use comic strips to create discussions on everything from causes of the Civil War to photosynthesis. In social studies, the students can try to create characters that look like the actual founding fathers (e.g. Washington, Jefferson, etc.). They can create conversations that represent the opposing views of W.E.B. Dubois and Booker T. Washington. It takes a while to get used to, but I think it’s great. Check out just one of the characters I have created which I will use to develop my own comic strip.
