This week, I have been working on a Library Resource Mashup workshop for the teachers at my school . I wanted a visual to illustrate the change we are making to a more digital perspective in our library media program.
I have played with several drawing programs and comic creators this summer. I have found Pixton to be the best choice for me. I like the adjustable backgrounds and the articulated characters very much. Pixton for Schools has some wonderful features for student use; such as custom settings, class log-ins, and the ability to create printable PDF files. It is not free, however. A class of 30 could use it for one month for $30.
Library Girl Goes Digital is the result of this morning’s efforts on Pixton.
Perhaps, Library Girl will return in the future for more adventures!
