AutoDraw. Sketchnoting In The Classroom - Verbal To Visual. What is Sketchnoting? - Verbal To Visual. Are you curious about what sketchnoting is and how you might use it? Here’s an overview for you, pulled from a resource kit that I built called Sketchnoting In The Classroom. Sketchnoting is a form of note-taking, hence the “noting” part of it, but as you might guess it involves bringing more visuals into the process compared to typical note-taking, hence the “sketch” part. The whole idea behind adding sketches to your notes is that it taps into parts of your brain that would lie dormant if you only use words to explore ideas. It’s the combination of the two that’s most powerful – using both words and visuals while taking notes. That’s what will fully light up your brain. What’s nice about sketchnoting is that it’s not a strict format. It doesn’t say you have to take notes this way. Instead, it presents you with a variety of tools for you to choose from and create your own customized note-taking process, one that works well with your learning style and your personality.

But let’s back up here. First, what is it? What is remix literacy? Cast your mind back to 1977 (if you’re old enough). This is remix. Understanding remix often means understanding the cultural norms or themes that are being teased out, played with or subverted.
