Sketching an abstract comic helps to reach a new perspective on concepts, events, content etc. Working with comics I got insights into Nick Sousanis’ understanding and use of comics as a medium, I examined the potential of comics in the organization of and reflection on learning processes.

16. Reflection
I like to scribble - and I hate to draw pictures
I love Mathematics, grids, structures
I didn’t and don’t read comics - I prefer books with as
many pages as possible
I find the use of grids & gestures comics interesting
and fun
I will continue to work with comics
