Pixton engages students across the curriculum through the magic of comics with an easy-to-use, web-based comic creation platform. Teachers can bring writing assignments to life with a visual component, turn a lab report into a story about science, or ask students to explain a math concept through visuals and narratives. Pixton makes it easy to take advantage of all the academic benefits of comics, including literacy development, creativity, media literacy, improved storytelling skills, learning vocabulary and grammar in context through real-world language, improved student confidence, and the ability to put culture into context. Comics are also great at communicating complex ideas, which is perfect for science and math classrooms!

With curriculum-relevant content packs, themed class photos, a comic builder, and an avatar creation tool that allows your students to see themselves in what they create, everyone can get in on the fun, even if they don’t feel comfortable drawing. With Pixton, it’s easy to put students at the center of their own epic learning journey!
