Abstract

This study group’s purpose is to share empirical research and pedagogy using texts that combine words with images, with the ultimate goal of supporting researchers/educators of all experience levels in developing work on graphic novels in literacy education. We will discuss how making comics can be incorporated into instruction as well as how diverse representations in graphic novels and comics make them appeal to a wide variety of readers.
