Jamboard Comic Project

This project borrows from a similar project by Dan Ryder and Jacquie Gardy presented at ISTE21.

For this project, students create a comic using Jamboard. All graphics are from Canva.

Sketchpad 2020 - Draw, Create, Share!Sketchpad: Free online drawing application for all ages. Create digital artwork to share online and export to popular image formats JPEG, PNG, SVG, and PDF.

Sketch.io is an online makerspace that has hundreds of tools for students to create their comic within a few minutes. Sketch.io saves work via downloads (Jpeg, PNG, etc.) and saves from session to session.

Film Storyboard Remix

Another way of using comic methods in the classroom is to create a storyboard for a film project. In this remix, students create a storyboard for a short film using some examples from Star Wars and The Lion King.
