Teaching for the Future 102
Today I spoke with comic artist, podcaster, and teaching artist Jerzy Drozd. I first became a fan of Jerzy through his podcast Art and Story, which he produces with fellow teaching artist Mark Rudolph.
For the past few years Jerzy has been leading classes and workshops for both teachers and students. Jerzy and I discussed his work in the classroom, including the workshops he recently led at the John F. Kennedy Center. We talk about visual literacy, comics in the classroom, and how teachers can use comic book making to turn their students from consumers into creators.
Finally we talk about his upcoming comic confrence for kids called Kids Read Comics coming up June 12th-13th in Chelsea, Michigan.
