Full Day Workshop: Hack your brain: You CAN Doodle your notes—and why you SHOULD!

What if you had a shortcut to stay more engaged in training and remember more from educational sessions? You can do this with a technique called sketch noting. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the how and why of sketch noting. You’ll leave armed to engage more fully with learning sessions, taking away a toolkit of visual shortcuts to doodle your way to better notes that help you retain more from every event you attend.

Key Takeaways:

• Everyone can draw (and your drawing doesn’t need to be “good” to help you remember and retain information).

• Doodling helps us keep focus, practice creative problem solving and engage in deep information processing.

• You can leverage doodling when information density is high and the need to process information is high.
