Last November, I presented the panel called “The Value of Teaching Comics in College Courses.” This session explored the importance of comics in today’s coursework and some methods for incorporating comics into the classroom.

This post is a presentation share for anyone who would like to view the slides and accompanying notes. Notes under each slide reflect my presentation script.

Thank you!
