Simple Path What you are about to read is my analysis of students’ comics on how they wrote their literature reviews. There are two different versions of the story, the "complex path" and the "simple path." This path, "simple path," is more straightforward and only has a bit of theory. This path also features commentary from Susan Gardner Archambault, Head of Reference and Instruction at Loyola Marymount's William H. Hannon Library.

Complex Path Introduction What you are about to read is my analysis of students’ comics about how they wrote the literature review. There are two different versions of the story. This first version is the “easier” version, the one with only a bit of “theory.” The second version, which you can also access, has more theory, which includes ideas about myth and ideology, the trickster and the shadow, and shame, guilt, and redemption. And a lot more pictures from my students’ comics.
