Class Project Should Be Like This!
Tom sez, “Our Stanford Creative Writing class wrote and illustrated a 224 page Graphic Novel this past quarter, and now it’s up on the web. The story concerns the phenomenon of acid attacks in Cambodia, especially against women. We made the Graphic Novel in 6 weeks, with a collaboration among 17 students in creative writing, art, and design.”

I am always wondering why all of my studies’ assigment has never made me excited to do it. Sometimes I really want to create something interesting and enthralling that I can show everyone what I’ve learned and what I can create, but the moment has never come to me, at least until now. While I was reading Boingboing.net, I found this article about 17 students at Stanford University produced a graphic novel, I was wondering why I couldn’t do such thing. Well, enough whining, and for you, read Shake Girl please.
It was hands down the best class I’ve ever taken. I totally encourage you to adopt similar programs at other schools.
