What is Sketchnoting? • 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 sketching. Kevin Thorn • Sketchnotes are rich visual notes created from a mix of handwriting, drawings, hand- drawn typography, shapes, and visual elements like arrows, boxes, and lines. Mike Rohde
