Technology and Graphic Novel/ Short Story Production

This is a revised assignment I have been using for years with my 9th Grade College Prep students. Here is the link to the lesson plan.Toward the end of the Short Story unit, students learn about making scripts, planning story boards, and putting together picture stories with words included (graphic novels). Recently, while taking technology in Education Course at Southern New Hampshire University, I have decided to bring this into the 21st century. Where students once used tape and glue, this time around they needed to use Google Docs to create, collaborate, and produce a final product.

Also there is a link here to a student generated example. I think they did a pretty good job for their first time through the process. The short story is Button Button, by Richard Matheson.
