Reading in the Gutter returns with our first episode for Season 2 to discuss "Teaching comics in different contexts (college, high school, and middle school)..." with Jason D. DeHart. In this episode, Dani, Ashley, Stephanie, and Jason consider the similarities and differences in teaching comics at different grade levels, how students accept or push back against the use of comics and graphic novels in the classroom, and  what constitutes complexity and literary merit in classroom spaces. We also discuss challenges and successes we've experienced teaching comics at all levels of education.
