Tools:Pixton

As you know by now, tools are great ways for teacher's to express themselves. It is very important in learning and we are back with our Tools Series! Today we will examine Pixton! Pixton is a cartoon creation tool that allows its users to create awesome comics.  Anyone can access to contribute with their own comics. This tool is very easy to use and does not require any artistic skills to work on it. You can introduce it to your students and let them create their own comics and share them with each other. You can create comics that looks just like you and other creatures. It is very comprehensive. There are dinosaurs,dragons,aliens etc. It is a free application but if you are saying that you will be using this application very often, you can upgrade your membership.Pixton offers a service designed specifically for schools called Pixton for Schools which is not free. This service enables teachers to create private rooms for their students in which they can collaboratively create and share their comics. Unfortunately the downloading button only works if you have a paid membership but that's not a problem for free users. You can take screenshots of your comics and share them wherever you want.
Here is the cartoon that I created:

I want to say that even though it looks like it was created for children, it has many features. Improves your writing skills Explores your creativity It makes you inspired with a lot of conc...

Tools:Flipgrid

Hi again! This is an application that I never heard of before. Come join me to find out this application!  Flipgrid  is a social learning platform that allows educators to ask a question, then the students respond in a video. Flipgrid  is a website that allows teachers to create "grids" to facilitate video discussions. Each grid is like a message board where teachers can pose questions, called "topics," and their students can post video responses that appear in a tiled grid display. The video lenght is from 15 seconds to 5 minutes and I think that is a good gap because you can give a simple answer or a comprehensive one. I think teachers can determine the seconds so that students won't be  confused about their response video's lenght. Another great feature about Flipgrid is that you are not only limited to talk with your teachers. Student to student is a great way to learn actually and Flipgrid matters that subject. Student -to- Student  Replies allow ...
