Sketchnoting is a form of Visual Writing by
expressing ideas, concepts, and important
thoughts in a meaningful flow by listening,
processing, and transferring what you hear
by analog or digital sketching.

Sketchnoting is NOT

It’s about adding creative
style and emphasis to
your own notes.

Characters (WHO)
add visual appeal that may help pull notes into that emotional context where mood and tone are needed to emphasize a point.
Locations (WHERE)
are simply what the name implies – a place. A place to help frame the context of the notes or story.

In their simplest form a stick
figure is in fact a character. It
doesn’t have to be anything
more than that.
It’s what you do with your stick
figure that makes all the
difference.
