A google search of visual note taking (and its benefits) results in over 1 Billion results. If visual notes are okay, shouldn't books telling stories with visuals be okay too?

Visual note-taking
Above anything else, visual note-taking is about listening to content and capturing key points. You don't have to show off your notes to others just yet. Take the time to practice and your visuals will fall into place.

There is some important research done on graphic novels and critical thinking skills. Perhaps these will help:

I am curious about how others would handle this as I too am having the same issue!
Recently I had one teacher tell her entire class in front of me that they were babies because graphic novels are baby books. Then she looked at me as if I were in agreeance. She has also banned her class from checking them out.

Good morning,

I am in need of some wisdom, if you have the time to share it.

I am in my 7th year of being a librarian, and this year I am in a new school in my district. My administration is very supportive of students taking out whatever they would like to read, as long as they are doing some "stretching" and trying new things, challenging themselves, etc. My admin are great to work with.

My struggle is with some staff members; they have some very specific ideas on what their students should check out, particularly avoiding "candy books," as they are called--books with lots of pictures. Some teachers even say picture books aren't welcomed, even though I have been educating on how some are made for older readers, such as our Bluestem selections. Graphic novels aren't particularly welcomed either, and my efforts to have the students take a balance of graphic novels with traditional novels has lead one teacher to banning graphic novels altogether with a "No Graphic Novel November."

I am trying not to go hard on this because I am new to the building, and relationships and trust need to be built so that I can do my job the way it needs to be done. However, the daily struggle is getting to me.
I would appreciate any ideas you have; please email me off-list so we don't clog everyone's emails. Many thanks in advance!
