Description
Drawing, visual thinking and now sketchnoting – they’re all part of a revolution to help us solve complex problems, boost memory and unleash our creativity. In this ‘Introduction to Sketchnoting’, you’ll learn practical ways to bring your notes to life using a powerful visual language. Together we’ll look briefly at the theory of sketchnoting, draw together in a range of “follow along exercises” to give you rapid experience in the fundamentals of sketchnoting (the bulk of the course), and finally look at where you can apply this skill in your daily life.This course is based on dozens of seminars I’ve led in organizations on this same topic and my book, A Simple Guide To Sketchnoting, which is 4+ stars on Amazon with over 100 reviews.Material is broken down into bite size segments, so you can practice these skills quickly. You can return to this material when you wish. There are also some exercises suggested outside of this material to reflect on what you are learning as you go.In working with people, I’ve founded these to be valuable skills for students, strategists, designers, product managers, engineers, facilitators and teachers. In fact, whatever your work or study, there is likely a valuable application for visual thinking.
