Abstract

Hi, I’m Sage, a zinester and graduate student studying education. I have done a lot of academic and non-academic writing in my life. I believe in bridging the two, especially in making academic writing more accessible to people outside of academia. Zines are an excellent vehicle for doing this. They hold great educational potential that is often underutilized. I want to see more educators teaching with zines! I also want to see everyday people be given greater access to academic research through zines. This multi-media zine explores these ideas and provides some examples, instruction, and resources. I hope to get readers on board and excited about the educational power of zines!
