El cómic como medio para explorar la ciudad de Bogotá

Abstract

Comics as an alternative to explore the city of Bogotá is a research-creation project that was materialized in the creation of a three-chapter comic in English language that would display as a communicative purpose some elements of deep culture that are not perceptible, but still have influence in the development of an urban culture in Bogotá. From an educational perspective, the works derived from this proposal attempted be seen as an instrument that might promote in its readers both the interculturality and the intercultural communicative competence (ICC). This would eventually promote the understanding of both local culture and one another’s cultural background. Finally, it is needed to be stated this product was never intended to be a textbook replacement, but rather it was designed to be an additional English class didactical resource.
