  • Connecting Through Comics: Expanding Opportunities for Teaching and Learning
    US-China Education Review B 4 (2012) 389-395 Earlier title: US-China Education Review, ISSN 1548-6613 D DAVID PUBLISHING Connecting Through Comics: Expanding Opportunities for Teaching and Learning Cynthia Bolton-Gary University of South Carolina Beaufort, Bluffton SC, USA When students are faced with learning abstract contents, creating meaningful teaching and learning opportunities is a challenge for many educators. Concerns for how to get students to connect theoretical constructs and apply them to the “real world” is especially critical for those students studying to be teachers. This descriptive study illustrates how comics can facilitate students’ learning of overarching concepts, such as cognitive development, motivation and information processing. Keywords: innovative pedagogy, teaching strategies, humor, comics, educational psychology Comic Intention When perusing a textbook, you will often find comic strips in the margins of the chapters. After reviewing a number of education text books, it becomes apparent that comics are a popular method of textbooks that authors use for illustrating theoretical concepts, providing levity and increasing student interest in the written text. However, would this approach also affect students’ learning in the context of lecture-oriented teacher education course? Often, in pre-service teacher education courses, students with limited experiences are confronted with trying to makes sense of abstract theoretical contents. Concerns for how to get students to connect theory with reality and then to the “real world” are especially critical for those who are studying to be teachers (see Figure 1). How instructors bridge the theory with reality is an age-old problem in higher education. Can illustrating psychological and developmental concepts connect students with abstract theoretical constructs illustrated in the comic? Figure 1.

  • Comics Redux
    COMICS REDUX GARY WRIGHT AND Ross B. SHEPAN The University of Texas at Tyler For the past one hundred years, the American public has been entertained by the daily and the Sunday newspaper comic strips. The comics are now recognized as a legitimate and unique pop art form that chronicles the American culture. Research con- cerning reading interests and preferences provide evidence that the comics have a particular attraction to school age children. Reading research also provides evidence that comic art medium can be a viable instructional and recreational component in pub- lic and private schools' literacy curricula. The daily and Sunday comics possess a number of attributes that make them appealing to students and appropriate for instruction. Research evidence is cited that supports the accessibility, the suitability, and the read- ability of the comics' section of newspapers. This article provides a primary focus on the readability levels of 58 contem- porary comic strips and cites specific web pages where weekly comics can be viewed. Blondie and Dagwood, celebrating their irony and foreshadowing, not from great 75th anniversary in the comics, make room literary works but from the odd collection for a score of houseguests from comicdom. of characters that inhabited the funny Can anyone imagine Hagar the Horrible, pages.

  • The Cartoon Crier
    VOLUME 1 SPRING 2012 ISSUE 1 2 THE CARTOON CRIER Bil Keane, 1922–2011 In the late 1990s I was in my thirties trying to make a name for myself as a cartoonist. I fervently wanted to make a comic that could be deemed literature. I believed the future of the medium was the graphic novel and had no time for the contemporary newspaper comic strip. Its format seemed tired and its content formulaic. Then I saw the above Family Circus panel. The elements still give me a chill. A leafless tree is silhouetted in what looks to be the stark lighting of sundown. An old woman, her back to the reader, peers over her shoulder. The setting at first seems intimate, as she is sitting on a bed, yet the wall behind her is impersonal and empty. Her expression is one of weariness and resignation. She is contemplating her death. Whom is she speaking to? Her son? Her husband? An apparition? Little Dolly? This one unpretentious panel had all the mystery and pathos I so wanted to see in my own work. I had a lot to learn from Bil Keane. Bil Keane passed away last year at age 89. He was a great cartoonist. Through his involvement with the National Cartoonists Society, Bil enriched the lives of so many other cartoonists. The editors of The Cartoon Crier respectfully dedicate this issue to his memory. — James Sturm THA E C RTOON CRIER Volume 1 Number 1 Spring 2012 Publisher A joint publication of The Center for Cartoon Studies and The National Cartoonists Society Editors Cole Closser, R.

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE PASADENA STAR -NEWS : THE FIRST HUNDRED YEARS A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Mass Communications by Kenneth Warren Chew May 1987 ----"';:---.--=-==---=~---lfl.~,p£ California State University, Northridge ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thousands of hours of my life were spent in acquiring the raw data that form the basis for this study. Countless more were spent in sorting, sifting, and weighing the information, then composing the words that appear on the following pages. But as self-sufficient as I would like to believe myself, I recognize the immense contributions made by many others before the completion of this work could be ensured. The important people include: My ever-supportive wife, Elaine, who suffered through countless nights and weekends without me while I gathered information and later wrote the chapters that she patiently critiqued. My three children, Lynn, Debbie, and Paul, who became "thesis orphans" during the project and learned to keep low profiles during the rare times that I was at home. My mother and father, Anne and Paul, who read the manuscript and offered personal observations about the Los Angeles area in earlier days and some of the important characters like Charles Paddock, who shared a French class at USC with my mother. Megs Meriwether, who provided tremendous insight into early-day Pasadena and invaluable advice on important community events; Charles Cherniss, Howard Collins, and other present and former Star-News employees, who helped immeasurably by sharing with me their knowledge of the newspaper; and Carolyn Garner, who guirled my way through thousands of feet of microfilm on past ne\vspaper issues at the Pasadena library--all· were instrumental in their respective areas.
