Brand new to visual Note-taking? Here are five resources to help you get started:

TED has amazing visual notes. Check them out here, and try your hand at building your own while watching a talk. I’d recommend this one.

Hi Tricia,
I found this post extremly inspiring and I will go straight away to try out this myself! I have always wanted to try to create an animated video, but my poor drawing skills had discouraged me to do so. Your post made me think that it could be worhtwhile no matter how good my sketches are as I can start with simple shapes and try to improve them later on. I usually take notes on my computer in a few different ways. I have just made a few screenshots here if you are interested: https://spark.adobe.com/page/m79mu2etcMloo/
Many thanks for your post, we will try this next week with a grade 5 class.
