I would like to use it in my future teaching since it will assist language learners to develop their language comprehensive abilities as well as their creativities. When creating their own dialogues, they need to consider the vocabulary, grammar and textual meaning. Moreover, creating dialogues can enhance the learners' pragmatical skills. I would like to have my students create the comic stories and do a presentation.
Performance Indicator
According to Performance Indicator-ESL.E.2-4.1.1, students convey and organize information, using facts, details, illustrative examples, and a variety of patterns and structures.
Moreover, students will demonstrate cross-culture knowledge and sensitivity in communicating with others of varied social, cultural and linguistic backgrounds. They will develop and use culturally appropriate behaviors, and a knowledge of local and U.S. cultures and practices, in their interaction with others in their new cultural environment.

Assessment
To assess students' performance, I would like to involve peer assessment. Presenters show the videos and let peers comment on it and rank the favorite one. Thus can assess the creativity and language proficiency.
If it is a multi-cultural classroom, making stories based on their own cultures will be more interesting and educating. I would like to have students from different cultures work together and comment on each other.
I like your idea of having the students evaluate each other's creations. It would be a good idea to give them a rubric to follow before creating their comic strips and in doing the evaluations.
