Creating comics

I am doing a short course/ Mooc online about   Creating Comics.
It is run by a Spanish institution and it is providing some help and useful ideas.

We have been given information about  some theories and sources online. We have  also reflected online.

Here are the main resources we have used and read about:

https://grammarmancomic.com/comics/

https://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/blogs/%C3%B6zge-karao%C4%9Flu/digital-storytelling

http://www.freeeslmaterials.com/comics.html


In the final   link we found a lot of nice tools which are used to create cartoons and  to tell stories in many different languages and also when dealing with different topics. They need to be checked: some are not available anymore.


I chose to use a simple tool free online:

I created my first comic in English in just a few minutes: the quality of the images is not excellent but I like the idea of having my  learners who are  working online and can create a comic without having an account.
Here is  just  an example, you can have 6 images  for your  narration and you can add bubbles and choose simple characters but it  is free. You do not need to be  a master of   new technologies.

I am going to assess some works shared online and I will have my final badge. I cannot but say that we should all be offered such interesting courses online. We can learn by doing!



Here is my badge:link to the details of  the course
