Toondoo and Today’s TL Tuesday
This post is directed more to my staff…
And it is my first attempt at using Toondoo which is a really fun on-line comic strip creator. I showed it to one of my Algebra teachers yesterday and he used it to create a comic strip of a TAKS word problem (just to make it a little more fun for the students).
I think it would be a great way to illustrate the definition of a word or phrase or to have students summarize something they have read. Do you see any educational uses for it?
By the way… I have been trying like mad to get the full-version of the comic strip to show up, so you don’t have to click on it to read it, but I can’t get it to work and fit in the provided space. I have re-sized it before I put it in, after I put it in and I tried the different codes Toondoo provides. I would love some guidance. You can view the comic directly here until I can get the coding figured out.

Hi there,
Sorry you had trouble embedding the full version.
Choose the first of the three options (the one on top) in the popup.
That will give you the smooth-scrolling version that you can find in the homepage of ToonDoo.
Good luck.
Do write in to me at rajendran@jambav.com, if you still need help.

Rajendran,
Thank you for your suggestion; however, I have tried the first of the three code options provided by Toondoo (in fact, I tried all three). When I use the first piece of coding, nothing is displayed.
Other suggestions?
Thank you
