s someone who works remotely, I've tried my fair share of collaboration apps. However, I have to say that Microsoft Teams has impressed me the most. It's a comprehensive app that brings together all the tools I need to communicate and collaborate with my colleagues seamlessly.
The interface of Microsoft Teams is user-friendly and easy to navigate. I particularly love the left-hand navigation bar that provides quick access to all the features, including chats, meetings, files, and activity. The app integrates with other Microsoft apps, such as Outlook and OneDrive, making it easier to schedule meetings and access files. The chat feature is simple, yet effective, with options to create groups, share files, and use emojis and GIFs.
As a former classroom teacher of French and Spanish, English Language Arts, and Social Studies, my business now is creating resources for language teachers to tell stories and teach about culture, geography, history, and other content...in a language that may be quite new to the students. So, with that kind of work, you can bet I am always on the lookout for the best tools to visually scaffold the information so it is easier to understand through pictures, icons, and other design elements. I use Storyboard That almost every single day in my work on these materials. Since the resources are for (mostly) children and teens, I prefer a comic or cartoon-y style. Storyboard That is my go-to "character generator." I use it to make and pose characters into scenes and then I combine these groups of characters with Canva, to create PNGs that I then make into presentations for giving mini-lessons in class, texts for kids to read in class, etc. For me, Canva AND Storyboard That together are the perfect solution, and the price is right, for my purposes, as Pixton (which integrates directly with Canva) charges about $500 a year for the rights to replicate your work using their library for commercial purposes, whereas Storyboard That is only $12 or so a month, which includes that permission level for your original compositions. Pixton without that level of permission is about $40 a month, so you would need to think about what the integration of the two would be worth for you in terms of efficiency or the available images and effects in Pixton. For $144 a year, Storyboard That is an excellent option for me. And for free, you can create three active storyboards at a time, so you could potentially use it and never pay a dime.
