Using 'Snapseed', I modified a few fun family photos using 'Snapseed' in preparation for creating the comic strip. Then, using 'Strip Designer' I proceeded to create my fun strip of a family wedding.
The process took a substantial amount of time as it was my first project using strip Designer. It was trial and error particularly when adding and aligning text boxes on images within the comic strip. In the classroom it would be time consuming and challenging to teach the skills required for all individual students to create their own comic strip. Initially, due to time restrictions, I will start by creating collaborative group comic strips with each student in the group creating one frame within the comic strip.
After reading the article '10 Easy Ways To Get Started with iPads', I agree there are numerous ways to use Strip Designer as an app for presenting a range of student work as well as for teaching aids such as posters, procedures, timelines, reports, etc. More ideas on how to incorporate Strip Designer in teaching and learning would develop as proficiency in the use of the app improves for both teacher and students.
Children will definitely enjoy the adding text boxes, speech bubbles, captions and other effects to their photos to illustration a series of steps in a procedure, to present a book review, to report on a visiting presentation, to present a pictorial recount of an excursion, to create a timeline or to simply create a comic strip of ideas featuring photographs of student illustrations. Ideas for use are only limited by combining practical ideas, creativity and skill development in the use of the app. I will endeavour to incorporate the use of this app in a couple of student activities next term, probably as a procedure and also as a report on the school presentation or function for the school newsletter.
