OB Comic Xchange: Sharing our Best Teaching Comics

Keywords: humor, presentations, critical thinking

Abstract: Let’s face it: people are funny, and OB is well positioned to capture the quirks and foibles of human nature. Incorporating comics into your teaching is effective for highlighting hidden truths and paradoxes of ourselves, our co-workers, and our organizations. In this session the author will share examples from their personal library of OB-themed comics and demonstrate ways to use them in teaching practice. A shared Flickr site will be developed, and requests for comics will be sent to the MOBTS list prior to the conference to establish a shared community resource for comics.
