THE PROJECT.........................
Developed specifically for kids aged 9-14, the Sketch-O-Matic is a web-based project tool that introduces students to the comedy genre and with advice from the pros, guides them through the process of writing their very own comedy sketch.
The Sketch-O-Matic consists of five stages (see 'Episodes' tab) that explore the different types of comedy and provide an online space in which students can undertake their own creative writing. Features include exclusive You’re Skitting Me video clips, a digital scrapbook - in which students can record and generate their own ideas and an online scripting tool - in which students can write their own comedy script, adding characters and direction for printing and testing with an audience.
THE TECHNOLOGY..........................
