This workshop unveils a novel approach to teaching sensitive topics, such as sexual harassment, through the integration of graphic novels (comic). Recognizing the limitations of traditional methods specially in sensitive topics, the proposal advocates for harnessing the power of comics to make teaching enjoyable for professors and joyful for students. Instructors will embark on a comprehensive journey, gaining four valuable insights into (1) when to employ comics as an instructional tool, (2) the effective pedagogical techniques for teaching with comics, (3) a critical examination of the impact of comic-based cases compared to their traditional text counterparts, and (4) step-by-step process of crafting a compelling comic case. The workshop offers pragmatic insights and tangible skillsets to various educators, especially in HR, OB, or EDI in any domain such as IT and Entrepreneurship, to extend their educational content accessibility and impact.
