Sketchnoting Learning Circle : Think & Listen with a Pen [July 2016]

Join the Sketchnotes-SF small group "learning circle." Limited to only 10 people, this format allows for more collaborative learning in a group of peers.

At this session we'll practice visual notemaking both from listening and from explaining ideas. Come prepared with 2-3 concepts or ideas to "explain" to a partner. And be ready to sketch out what you hear explained to you. :)

We'll do a series of rapid rounds to get warmed up, then team up to practice "listening with a pen" and "thinking with a pen."

This session is best suited for people with some experience in sketchnoting. Big thanks to our friends at Tangible UX who are hosting us for the evening. And heads up that seating is extremely limited (only 10 spots!)
