The response was particularly strong from teachers, so the company has now gone onto build ToonDooSpaces, a site for private collections of toons. Although education was the primary market, ToonDooSpaces is open to other organisations and groups. A ToonDooSpace is a members-only area, and users can only view toons created by other members or administrators of that group. Administrators can vet all content and activity within the space. Management functions include creating multiple users in one go, hiding clipart deemed inappropriate for the group, and highlighting particular toons. Each ToonDooSpace has its own subdomain within toondospaces.com. "ToonDooSpaces is great," enthused Edna Sackson of Mount Scopus Memorial College in suburban Melbourne. "We are finding so many ways of using ToonDoo, be it to display a new understanding, to create a story, to practise using second language or simply to express creativity in an original way. Our teachers love it and our kids are hooked! I highly recommend this innovative tool for teaching and learning," she added. A free 15 day trial of ToonDooSpaces is currently available. Pricing starts at $US0.27 per user per month (30 users for one month), falling to $US0.10 per user per month (at least 1000 users for 12 months). |
