The following is my One Minute Message for week 3. My message is an attempt to sell "ToonDoo.com" to teachers who are looking for ways to make from writing a most enjoyable experience for their students...

ToonDoo is a cool comic-creating tool that could be used to make from writing a fun and enjoyable experience for students. It allows my students to create their own cool comic strips with just a few drag ‘n drops ‘n mouse clicks...
Steps:
I find that ToonDoo is a rich 2.0 website; It offers rich and engaging experience which improves the students satisfaction and increases their productivity in terms of writing and creativity.


Steps:
- Students will register and log in. (It’s free!)
- Students click on the ‘Toondoo Maker!' button
- Students select their panel layout (I recommended three)
- Students drag ‘n drop in characters, backgrounds, props, speech bubbles in whatever order suits you best
- If students are not able to find the character they like, they could create their own using the TraitR
- Students could also upload images from their computer or anywhere else on the web using the ImagineR tool feature
- Students communicate their thoughts and practice their writing using the bubbles...
- Student will publish their work, I recommend publishing it as private (can only be viewed by students under 'My Toondoos')
- Students will be graded on writing and creativity. I personally had them send me screen shots of their work...
