Unit Three: Methods of Integrating Sequential Art into NYS English Language Arts Curriculum
Introduction
When beginning this unit, it is important to focus on the title. In this unit, you will learn ways to apply what you have learned about sequential art to bringing it into the classroom. What you will not learn are methods of teaching. All of you taking this course are teachers already and as such, the assumption is that you have a base knowledge of pedagogy, as well as the New York State learning standards. Thus, this unit will consist of less "direct instruction" in the form of readings and mini-lectures and will be more focused on activities where I will be facilitating.
Additionally, in this unit I will show you some useful tools and resources that can help you along the way.
