Hello sketchnoter friends!

Please click here to receive regular email updates to this page (Note: Not necessary to sign up again if you already signed up on the pop-up form to this website).

Welcome to the page for #SKETCHNOTEFEVER resources. This campaign was designed to bring awareness to sketchnoting and to build people’s visual dictionaries or vocabularies for use in sketchnotes.

What is sketchnoting? Sketchnoting, or visual note-taking, is an effective and fun way to take notes using doodles and text. It has many other benefits such as increased focus and engagement in class, improved comprehension and memory retention, helps develop creative thinking skills and allows students an alternative way to display their learning and make connections to course content. It has a calming and relaxing effect too! (Click here for articles and studies that support sketchnoting.)

Please click the links below for the 3-minute video lessons (Note that you might need to pause the video from time to time while you and your students are drawing if it goes too fast). There is also a link to a slide with the icons which you can use or show your students afterwards.

Please note that these are only mini-lessons for sketchnoting. For a detailed teacher’s manual on how to sketchnote, check out my new book published by ElevateBooksEdu which you can order from Amazon.

Please note that a new, UPDATED VERSION of my book is now available with 100+ new icons, new fonts, a new “Icons with shapes” activity and all thirty-four #sketchnotefever lessons below!
