Using Comic Stripts to Teach Writing

The use of dialogues, incorporating vocabulary, grammar, and cultural aspects of language increases learning in a second language. Thus, the purpose of this presentation is to use comic stripts as the starting point to facilitate learners in determining and presenting their ideas about different subjects. Furthermore, learners will be able to create their own comic stripts and at the same time learn to connect and create a sequence from the first strip to the last.
