Discussions about multimodality as one of the important tools students should develop in their initiation into college writing have been ongoing in the Institute for Writing and Rhetoric, focused on a range of possibilities: films, audio compositions, visual arguments, hyperlinked compositions, and so on. This session will feature Larry Gonick, who authors highly effective scientific cartoons presenting different domains of scientific knowledge. After a presentation of his work and approach, we will discuss ways in which cartooning could be a particularly powerful mode of meaning construction in our courses. Lunch will be served.
