ToonDoo+Writing+Resource

[|ToonDoo] website (2011) describes ToonDoo as a “cool, comic-creating tool and that ToonDoo was the happy result of brainstorming session that was aimed at creating a new way of expression for those who do not have the talent to draw”. This resource could enable students with learning difficulties or just people who are not confident in drawing a way in which they can still be creative. This is a great tool for catering to individual learning styles of any age group.



The website is a unique writing tool that enables students to create their own comics, books,characters, upload photos and edit drawings. The website is free for creating online cartoons although some features on the website do have costs involved. [|Slide Share] (2011) provides a guide on how to make a cartoon using the ToonDoo platform.

There is also a linked website called [|ToonDoo Spaces] where you can create a private virtual ToonDoo space for your educational institution and discuss your comic strips with your group members in a secure and private environment. This space enables teachers to monitor and moderate work, ensure age appropriateness of clipart, create multi-author ToonBooks and participate in administration forums.

A Teachers [|Guide to ToonDoo] provides a paper that discusses how to utilise TooDoo to engage students and resources such an example rubric on how to evaluate students TooDoo’s.
