Tikatok by Mun Ting

is an application whereby students can create their own storybooks online. Publishing can be done individually as well as with their friends.
The level of difficulty of the storybooks ranges from prep to secondary schools. Tikatok teaches and educates students on the features in a book for standardized publication. Students can add their own images to go with their stories.
This website is a good way of teaching basic literacy and to get students interested in creative writing.
The downside of this programme is that you'll have to sign up (it's free) to use the facilities in the site. Teachers using this programme could perhaps create a communal username and password for the classroom so that students could share their stories with their friends.
