Graphic Novels Present a New Perspective on Scientific
Concepts
Illya
Kowalchuk, M.Ed
Graphic novels present
an interesting opportunity to introduce readers to challenging
scientific ideas. Combining text with images creates an easy to understand
platform that appeals to a wide variety of learning
styles. Illya Kowalchuk will discuss how graphic novels can
enjoyably explain topics such as fantastically powered beetles, DNA
and even nuclear fission.
