Home Learning Reflection

The home learning was very interesting and it was my first time doing comic strips Upon sight of toondoo, I became engaged more with the graphical and cool characters that were given. There was also a chance to customize the characters and I feel that this way of learning is a very creative, and unique way of teaching. Learning through comic strips is a very creative and IT savvy, modern, in-time way of teaching, and I advocate it.
The way to write and emphasise on the theme is required for us to write on.
I think I would like to have more of such home learning, or maybe some other methods of learning through creative ways, overall I enjoyed this assignment. 
I would like to create more comic strips in the future as it is simple and easy yet fun and enjoyable to complete. I think that it is pretty unique for one to learn different themes and how they connect to daily life through comics, or even poems; basically literature. 
However the home learning time frame for LA alone, which is one hour, is too little for the assignment ; although we do not use one hour ; all the work overwhelms many hours. I would then suggest that maybe a simple one comic script is sufficient for us, and maybe find an even better comic creator webpage, one which would save time, and yet productive and efficient. 
Essentially I do like the home learning given to us, as it is relatively simple and easy and not so difficult to brainstorm; and yet productive for our learning. I would like to do more comic strips as they can expand our creativity and base our connections between themes and literature ( maybe art ! )
Despite the big commotion on the difficulty to start creating comics at start, whereby everyone complains and stuff, I think that was just a temporary problem as the real benefits of learning through comics will come to light through time, as they would accustom and adapt to the seemingly difficult assignment, hence I would propose we continue doing comic strips.
