Students in 7th grade World History classes are using Storyboard That, a digital tool to create storyboards and comics, to share the stories of important revolutions in world history.

The program allows students to choose from different layouts and hundreds of characters and objects to tell their story.  The topics for the project include the French and Haitian Revolutions and Mexican and various Latin American Independence Movements. The comic should include detailed information about the causes of revolution as well as information about the nature of the revolution and its effecs. Students are also challenged to use a specific quote from a primary source in the comic as well.
