Technology Integration Spreads at Falls North Junior High!

I was so pleased to have one of my Financial Life Skills students ask how to access the Comic Creator web page by Read-Write-Think of Thinkfinity. This ninth grader was so hooked on how the site worked for our consumer complaint activity that she demonstrated it for her social studies teacher. Now, this teacher utilizes this highly-creative site for a dictator assignment. This situation certainly indicates how engaged students become when we integrate technology into our curriculum! In addition, higher-order thinking skills are better utilized with activities of this nature.

Check out Comic Creator at this link.
