Njengabafundisi, sisoloko sibuzwa umbuzo, “Ndingenza njani ukuze umntwana wam ayeke ukufunda iincwadi ezihlekisayo?” Abazali baxhalatyiswa kukuba iincwadi ezihlekisayo azinaxabiso lemfundo, abakho ngqongqo ngokwaneleyo ngokwemfundo, okanye okubi kakhulu, ukuchitha ixesha lomntwana wabo. Kule nto, impendulo yethu idla ngokubothusa, kwaye impendulo ithi, “Bayeke bafunde amahlaya!”
Kuyaqondakala ukuba abazali baya kuba nexhala njengoko imbono ikukuba iicomics zenzelwe ulonwabo kuphela., nangona kunjalo, iicomics zineenzuzo ezininzi ngaphaya kokusinceda sidlulise ixesha.
Iicomics kunye neenoveli zegraphic ayizondlela ezintsha zokubhala. Kanjalo, ziye zonwatyelwa ngabaninzi kangangezizukulwana. Emveni kweminyaka, Uhlobo lutshintshile lwaba lolunobunzulu nentsingiselo, kungoko sikhuthaza abazali ukuba bangavumeli abantwana babo bafunde iicomics kuphela, kodwa nokubaxhasa ekwenzeni oko.
Nazi izizathu zethu eziphezulu ze-comics kufuneka zifundwe (ngakumbi ehlotyeni!):
- ISango loBugcisa boLwimi
Kubafundi abangathethi isiNgesi, iicomics zibonelela ngendlela entle yokuba baqale ukonwabela uncwadi lwesiNgesi. Kubantwana abaninzi, umsebenzi wokusuka kwincwadi yesiNgesi ukuya kwinoveli unokuba nzima kakhulu, kodwa iicomics zinokubonelela ngebhulorho eyimfuneko kubo ukuze bakhe ukuzithemba kunye nokufunda ngokutyibilikayo. Iimpawu ezibonakalayo kwimifanekiso zivumela abafundi ukuba benze ukuqonda okunzulu kwesakhiwo kunye nabalinganiswa kunye nesigama esitsha.. Ukwengeza, ibazisa kwizixhobo zoncwadi ezisebenzayo, ezifana onomatopoeia (cinga POW! SMACK! ZOM!) kunye nezaci (umzekeliso obonisa intsingiselo yesaci ezifana, “Ikati ifumene ulwimi lwakho?” yenza ingqiqo ngakumbi kunokufudumeza isaci ngokwaso!).
2.Ukwandiswa kweInference
Ukuqonda sisakhono sokufunda esingundoqo abafundi abaninzi abasokola ngaso kwiimvavanyo zokufunda ezisemgangathweni. Ukuthelekelela kwenzeka xa sifikelela kwizigqibo ezisekelwe koko sikufundileyo. Eminye imizekelo yemibuzo abafundi abaya kudibana nayo ngexesha lokufunda imisebenzi yokuqonda okanye iimvavanyo yileyo efana, “Waziva njani umlinganiswa xa?”, “Ungagqiba ngelithini…” kunye “Siyintoni isifundo ebalini?” Iicomics zifuna ukuba abafundi “bafunde phakathi kwemigca” ukuze baqikelele ulwazi oludla ngokuxelelwa ngumbalisi kwinoveli., ngoko banokufumana amava amaninzi axabisekileyo ekomelezeni obu buchule ngokufunda iincwadi ezihlekisayo.
3.Amandla eLizwi!
Rhoqo kwiicomics kunye neenoveli zegraphic, ababhali baquka isigama esiphuhlileyo, zombini njengenxalenye yebali kunye nakumagama abalinganiswa. Kwi 2016 kwiComic-Con edumileyo yehlabathi eSan Diego, California, iqela labahlohli lixoxe ngamandla eecomics ekwakheni isigama sabafundi. UJames Bucky Carter, umbhali wencwadi ethi Building Literacy Connections with Graphic Novels uthe, “UneColossus, kwaye yena mkhulu, indoda enkulu yentsimbi. Ufumana ukuqonda kakuhle ukuba igama elithi colossus lithetha ntoni kwaye ligama elilungileyo le-10-cent. Amandla kaBanshee ayakhwaza. Unabo aba balinganiswa baquka amagama esigama akhoyo. Yinto leyo yindlela eyonwabisayo yokufunda amagama amatsha, ukongeza kwimikhondo yomxholo. "
Emva kokufunda oku unokufuna ukuvumela umntwana wakho ukuba angene ngqo ekufundeni iicomics okanye iinoveli zegraphic! Lo ngumculo ezindlebeni zethu. Ukuba awuqinisekanga ukuba uqale phi, sinezinto esizithandayo zabafundi umntwana wakho angathanda ukuzizama!
