In this episode of Reading in the Gutter, Dani Kachorsky host long time educator, George Festin Lorenzo, to discuss his experiences introducing graphic novels into the community college English Language Arts curriculum. George discusses the importance of choice in reading, demonstrates that traditional literary analysis can be conducted using visual texts, and reflects on students' general enjoyment in the process. Together, George and Dani consider how George's literary analysis project could be adapted to other educational contexts and offer reading recommendations for those teachers looking to introduce similar projects into their classroom practice.
