Zines in the Classroom Workshop

Weds. October 11^th

6-8pm

4^th Floor Lurie Lounge

Zines are often a low-cost, high impact way to help students understand information literacy, digest & process classroom material, and foster self-expression and creative communication—either individually or in collaboration with other students.

Welcoming teachers and instructors at all levels of education, this workshop will begin with a brief history of zines and zine culture, feature a show & tell of a wide variety of zines and approaches, and explore multiple ways to bring zines and zine making into the classroom through exercises and assignments. We will also demo simple zine making & production strategies.  (i.e. saddle stapled publications , single page zines, accordion folds, etc.) that can be used to make student  zines a reality.
