"Voki is a wonderful little tool that allows you to make your own avatar that speaks your messages. It appeals to me for these reasons:
* it's free
* it's incredibly easy to use - so intuitive absolutely no training or reading is necessary
* it's great fun
* my students really like it
* it has many cool uses
* you can embed it in your blog or website or e-mail it to someone"
"Creating cartoons and comic strips for educational uses can be quite interesting task. It obviously pushes the reluctant students to participate more and rub the dust off their brains. Students love to work in groups and compete with each other especially when there are motivating incentives for them. One of these incentives is the integration of comic strips into parts of your lesson."
