As a final project, students created comic books/graphic novels, focusing on possible themes: "something I earned/experienced/found significant -- ... during my first semester at college/USF" or "... an idea or experience from this class." 

A significant experience many chose to write about was a  "Digital Detox," where students did not use or go near electronic media for 24 hours.

The comics were created using ComicLife 3, from http://plasq.com
