The article deals with active participation of teachers and students of the Anton Aškerc Grammar School in the Erasmus+, Strip Identity, Project; teachers and students from nine countries take part in the project At the meeting of the participants in the Project the students prepared their presentation of Slovenia and its culture in PowerPoint. What followed was getting acquainted with and learning Pixton, a computer programme in a cloud, which enables students to make comics (http://www.strip2id.eu/). The Pixton for Schools programme (http://www.pixton.com/schools/comic/m7x6vrck) enables preparation of online classrooms for a teacher and in the online classroom the students made a comic. Since the aim of the Project is also searching cultural identity in literature the students made an online and a library research of stories which, in their opinion, present the folklore tradition of Slovenian nation. The selected stories Peter Klepec and Martin Krpan were used as a setting of the comics scenario the students made by using Pixton. Pixton makes it possible for a teacher to monitor the students’ progress of work, make comments on their choice of characters, tools, exchange of opinions. The downside of the programme is its being free of charge only to a certain extents as we had to pay an annual fee in order to be able to print the comic. Since the programme allows the use of own photographs the student had taken pictures of tourist attractions and sights in Slovenia and added them to the background of the stories about Peter Klepec and Martin Krpan, which increased their creativity.
