A web based digital ecosystem for researchers and comic artists to make comics based on research journals. Includes a side-by-side reader of educational webcomics that connects to a research paper and school subjects.

• Low interest of STEM areas (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) especially in children & students
• Misunderstanding the concept of science due to complexity of research journals
• Overgeneralization of science and design presented in the media
• Unemployed researchers and comic artists

“A web based digital ecosystem for researchers and comic artists to make comics based on research journals and for middle school students to learn about STEM areas through web comics”

By being understandable and easily accessible for students, the future of scientific research and development as well as art and design will be improved by those who are curious.

• Accessible to middle school students
• School Institutions
• Textbook Publishers

“I think it is very relevant, because often times there is a disconnect between the theoretical aspects of what is taught and what the population understands”

- Engineering Design Professor from Penn State University

• Cloud based database management for storage.
• A discussion board for researchers and comic artists
• Has an in-built editor for editing the comics as a tool for the content creators.
• Side-by-side reader which can guide readers to understand the research journal by hovering to one of the comic panels, which will highlight the passage where the cursor hovers at.
