Sketchnote activity
To get at the heart of experimentation. Let's do it.
- Think of one experiment or project you want to commit to trying this year.
- Use the sketchnote techniques we learned to visually represent your idea for an experiment. Use the hexagons and pens in the back of the room to sketch.
- Post your sketchnotes of your experiment idea here or on Twitter with the hashtag #IPLZASTX
- See what your peers on Twitter are posting. Is there someone you can connect with to jump on this experimentation journey?
