Depending on the comic strip you choose, it can also teach your more mature learners about

cultural issues surrounding them. Editorial cartoons are a great way to get learners thinking;

they don’t necessarily have to agree with the image that’s being presented, but they are

encouraged to think about the issue and hopefully create logical arguments that will help them

make sense of what they’re feeling. (Educomics.2019)

Comic strips are also versatile; they can be used in a wide variety of subjects, ranging

from history and literature to math and science. With the right comic strips, teachers can help

learners develop their higher-order thinking skills like analysis, evaluation, prediction, inference,

and many others. This multimodal text also helps learners gather information from multiple

sources; a valuable skill in our post-digital world. This helps them prepare for a digital landscape

that is rife with fake information and unsearched data. By teaching them to read comic strips,

these learners will learn not to take things at face value but rather developed deeper into a

particular thing. It helps them pay attention to detail, and thus, is trained to be aware of the

different ways meaning is constructed and communicated. (Educomics, 2019)
