At 0900 to 1030:
Join us for an interactive workshop with graphic facilitator Eleanor Beer for an introduction to visual notetaking, otherwise known as Sketchnoting.
This fun and creative session will teach you the Whats, Whys and Hows of Sketchnoting, including how to draw basic shapes and figures, how to listen and synthesise information; and how to structure your visual notes through a series of different exercises. You’ll also get the opportunity to practice and share your ideas with like-minded sketchnoters whilst developing and building your own visual vocabulary.
This popular workshop is perfect for anyone looking for a new way to express and capture their ideas and thoughts, regardless of their drawing ability!
The key learning outcomes of this session will be:
- Understanding what sketchnotes are and how and where they are used
- Understanding why sketchnotes are good for the brain
- Developing our own visual vocabulary and drawing skills
- Putting our listening and drawing skills to the test!
Please note that Notebooks and Pens will be needed for this event. These will be available to purchase if you don't have your own.
11th January is World Sketchnote Day!
World Sketchnote Day is a movement that encourages people to capture information using drawn images and words. Conceived and curated by Mike Rhode and The Sketchnote Army, the day aims to highlight the importance of visual thinking and learning through the creation of sketchnotes from all over the globe. It’s a great excuse to pick up and pen and have a go yourself, and to also share your work with others using the hashtag #SNDay2017.
