Booked In : Sourcing and Creating E-Content





WOW! It is amazing how the internet has opened up opportunities for people to be able to share their creativity and knowledge. The interactive nature of digital resources has certainly added a new dimension to reading and learning. Like previous weeks, this week provided an opportunity to further explore some great resources. I had heard of flipsnack and scribd, but had not visited the sites before. I found this blog very useful - 31 of my favourite Digital Storytelling Sites. The students at school love to use Storybird. I loved the simplicity of PicLits. Dom animate was also fun to play with. I found Toon Doon to be a useful tool for creating cartoons and have included a strip I had  created for an assignment. Most of these sites are fairly easy to navigate. There are so many wonderful tools/resources out there to use (although it gets a little frustrating at times that you have to sign up to them to explore their benefits).
