Hi, everyone! Today I am going to introduce you a
storytelling application named ‘Little Story Creator’.
As a first part you press on the button ‘ + ‘ to create a
new story. When you start, you add a name for
your story as you wish.
After naming, there comes different background options for
your story as you see on the picture. And for each page of your story you can
choose different types of background.
In the right side of the page, there is a part to add
different things on your story. Now we are going to look at them individually.
As you see the pictures below when you press on the
photographer-shaped button, there comes two options ; one of which is for
exporting photos from your own gallery, Facebook, Flickr, Picasa or Dropbox and the other is for exporting a video.
After adding an image or more (or you can do this before
adding etc. if you want) , you can add a
title and a text for the first page of your story as the screenshot shows
below.
When writing this title or the text, you can choose a
different type of fonts and colors. Moreover, you can set the tone of shadow
and border of the texts.
Then you can record your voice and arrange it to the text
you have written as you see from the image below.
You can also add different kinds of stickers on your images
in the story pressing on the yellow smile emoji button.
And you can draw pictures or write in different colors by the pencil button and erase some or all of them with the button under it as you can see below.
After all, you can go on a new page or duplicate the page
you have already done.You can delete the page you want to remove.
Pros of the application
-You can use this app in a language classroom with young
learners easily since it is a simple application.
-Directions are clear to follow the steps, so it serves
clear to use.
-With the texting and recording options in the app, learners
can practise their writing and speaking skills.
Cons of the application
-The application is very simple, so its audience’s level is
low.
-Although different options are there, it lacks variablity
and features like saving a story as a video.
-And I think it has to be improved as I encounter some
technical problems.
I like the speech to text feature.......One question I have is-----is there a way to delete a story that is not wanted after it has been saved??
