| Description |
This course provides an introduction to comics as a medium for scientific and cultural research and dissemination. Thanks to its multimodality and narrative power, the medium can visually convey certain concepts effectively and fluidly. The course will address theoretical aspects of comic language and examine various examples of scientific and educational comics, which will serve as models for students. Students will then create a short comic based on their doctoral research, either by drawing or using available online tools. |
