Session Abstract
Multiliteracy narratives contain formulaic language, e.g., idiomatic expressions and interactional patterns. A confluence of language and culture, comics embody good learning opportunities in terms of vocabulary, grammar, and pragmatics, all heavily saturated with formulaic language. Come learn how to turn the formulaic language used in comics into a teaching tool!
