Assigning creation of an online is a great way to assess students understanding of vocabulary and structure. Get them writing in a fun and imaginative way. It is something that we do occasionally in the computer lab, but it always an option in their homework Matriz.
Always make sure to offer a checklist or short rubric of what should be included (current vocab, grammar structures, questions...). Most can be emailed to the teacher or printed out.
I have also taught the students to do a print screen then paste into Paint, crop around the comic and save as a .jpg. The next step would be to post it on their wiki page.
Here are my favorites. Let me know if you know of others:
Make Beliefs Comix: My favorite. Can print or email. Scroll to the bottom for lots of resources and free printables!
Marvel Create Your Own Comic: Save as pdf file or print
Strip generator: finished comic can be emailed or printed
Comic Master: Graphic Novel creator. Registration required.
Domo Animate: animated comic generator
Here are also some comics in Spanish that you can use for reading and vocabulary practice:
Tiras Cómicas: from Zachary Jones
Gaturro: Comic strips from Argentina
Happy comic making!
