Online-Kurs "Gender Through Comic Books" beginnt nächste Woche

Die Website Comixology berichtet:

A Super MOOC is a 6-week Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) starting April 2nd that examines how comic books can be used to explore questions of gender identity, stereotypes, and roles. This highly engaging learning experience is designed for college-age and lifelong learners. The course, led by Christina Blanch of Ball State University, uses a study of comic books incorporating highly interactive video lectures, online discussions between students, and real-time socially driven interviews. Lectures will run on Tuesdays as well as live interviews with the comic industry's biggest names such as Terry Moore, Brian K Vaughan, Mark Waid, and more!

Ich muss sagen, die Liste der Studienmaterialien dieses Kurses gefällt mir besser als die Leselisten der Seminare, die ich während meines Studiums besucht hatte.

In einem Interview schildert die Leiterin des Kurses dessen Hintergründe.
