Did you miss the amazing Gender Through Comic Books SuperMooc course last winter?
Here’s your change to register for Ball State University’s Christina Blanch’s next course, Social Issues Through Comic Books! The six month course propose to discuss social issues ”using comic books as a lens” while examining how popular culture is shaped. Blanch’s anthropological perspective and great teaching skills will ensure a great experience to all participants!
Issues such as social inequality, environment changes and addiction are only a few of the issues which will be explored using varied reading material, lectures, live interviews and discussion threads.
You can read about the Gender Through Comic Books SuperMooc here and here!
We hope to meet you there!
What a great topic since comic books tie so well into popular culture. BTW, you might be interested in this topic on our blog: An interview with the anthropological linguist for “Man of Steel” http://bit.ly/1dYz1we 🙂
