Jibjab

Last day in class, I had the opportunity to explore this fantastic tool called Jibjab. I did not know about this program before and it really impressed me. I strongly believe that it is a good tool to use for telecollaboration, as it highlights the social factor.

If we are implementing a TEPBLL that involves partners from other parts of the world, Jibjab can be a good tool to present ourselves to our peers in a funny, motivating and creative way. Thus, in spite of making a video of presentation, we can elaborate an eCard choosing the topic or the characters thar we prefer, adding a message to this card and sending it to our mates. Moreover, it could be used to wish a happy celebration such as Christmas, Halloween, birthday, etc.

Furthermore, it could be a fantastic tool to create a warm atmosphere between the two groups of pupils since the can put their faces together in the eCards, so they are not actually together (they only see each other through a screen) but it seems so.

The only disadvantage that I can find is that the majority of videos or e-cards are not free. So that, if we want to create something free, we will have very few and limited options to choose.

Now, you will see an example of an e-card that I have created to wish a happy graduation:
