ComicBook

Get it here.
Cost: Free


UDL Guideline 5.1- Use multiple media for communication
ComicBook provides a unique way for students to communicate academic concepts. It is a creative way for students and teachers to express and share their ideas. Features include text, importing photos (one or more), resizing photos, and the ability to customize critical features within the comic.

General Critique
This alternative media reduces barriers of expression among learners with a variety of special needs, but also increases the opportunities for all learners to develop a wider range of expression in a media-rich world.

See below for example (primary source provided by Library of Congress).


Go to the Educations app review video example (by Courtney O'Dell- the last 55 seconds of the video) to see how to incorporate this "Imperialism" theme into your American History classroom.
