Graphic Novels

Personally, I believe that graphic novels could be very helpful for students for many possible reasons. One reason would be that some students don’t really like to read that much, which is relatable to students at a young age. Most young students at an early age don’t like to read that much and would rather watch a movie instead. Yet, with those movies the graphic novels would be way funnier to read for students, as they’ll get more details and ideas that the movie couldn’t fully corroborate into the movie. Also, the graphics could catch the eyes of a young student, who would like to make graphic novels for a living. However, at a young age I preferred to read graphic novels for Dragon Ball Z, instead of watching the episodes that didn’t fully put in a lot of the information at times or funny saying that Goku would say in the novel. Even though the fight scenes in the TV show was amazing to watch, but the graphic novel allows the reader to make the show in his head, while he reads the graphics scenes and the show plays inside his head. Yet, if the student doesn’t necessarily have that type of thinking or has trouble reading text in books. Then graphic novels would be perfect for students, who have trouble reading and understanding the text and meaning behind the words. This would allow the students to get visuals and ideas behind the words to help build a story inside their brain. But also, graphic novels are great piece of visual arts that could help connect to the students who are visual learners rather than linguistic type of learners. But another reason that graphic novels are helpful for students with learning would be that there isn’t a lot of text in-front of them. Often students feel overwhelmed with the amount of text on a page and get discouraged with that amount of reading. In which, these students don’t do the reading and often get left behind and forced to retake the class or take a reading class that is lower than their peers.
