World History in Graphic Novel

From "Conclusions": While controversy about graphic novels persists - especially among people who worry that graphic novels will bring the end of traditional books - our experiences with adolescents, as well as a number of current research studies, suggest that graphic novels are an important adjunct in our instruction. Graphic novels are viable options for students with disabilities, struggling readers, and English learners, but they are more powerful than that. Graphic novels are motivating and engaging for all students.
