Drawing Is the Fastest, Most Effective Way to Learn
You're probably not using the best, research-backed study technique.
“Caleb Hoffmann was a student in grade ten when he began using sketchnoting as a way to take class notes. He says that it has been extremely helpful for him because he is a visual learner. You can watch his two-minute video at bit.ly/CalebHoffmann or scan the QR code shown here on a mobile device.”
Excerpt From: Sylvia Duckworth. “How to Sketchnote.” Apple Books. https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/how-to-sketchnote/id1439262964?mt=11
Part 3: DRAWING-Igniting Your Creativity
Everyone Can Create: Drawing
“Each chapter of Everyone Can Create: Drawing takes you through a series of fun activities to help you acquire key skills and build a final project”
No, you don't have to be an artist!! In fact, I suspect you will be pleasantly surprised at the skills you actual.ly have and be very proud of your creations. So open your mind and give it a try!!
Check out the SOCIAL MEDIA, yes really take a look
Teachers Guide: Do not Neglect reading-it ties it all together from the teachers point of view!

A STYLUS will be EXTREMELY useful
Even though the book discusses the Apple Pencil, no need to purchase one, all stylus work!!
The Cadalic of Stylus is the Apple Pencil, although it comes with a heavy price tag of $99. However, the Apple Pencil only works with the iPad Pro or iPad 6. If you have a COE iPad many of you have an iPad 6, so it would work with the iPad 6. To learn more about the Apple Pencil https://www.apple.com/apple-pencil. I have an iPad Pro and love the Apple Pencil, I will say it is a game changer.
You can find all kinds on Amazon, in stores and for free on the tops of pens. They all work. My suggestion is to get one.
As a teacher, having a stylus to GRADE papers and such is a must.
Your classmates point of view
Growing up, when I was going through grades K-12, I remember always hearing teachers say "Sorry, I'm not an artist" any time they drew anything on the board. Yet, visuals are still a very important part of learning. For some, this is how they learn best and as teachers, we ought to try to accommodate various learning styles as best we can. I found this to be incredibly beneficial. For one, I LOVE the Sketches School app. The different pen styles made it fun to use, yet they were also very simple to use. It didn't take me long to realize which ones I liked the best and why. I find that I could really utilize this app in my classroom. Maybe if I know I'm teaching a novel with a lot of characters, I could draw an organizer to help my students out and just save it to my photos where it's easily accessible. This may be my most favorite app we've utilized all semester. It was great, and I really see myself using it in the future.
Ray Tanner siad:
The point of these drawing assignments is not to make me a better drawer, but to get me out of my comfort zone. To make me do something I wouldn’t do otherwise. This idea is what would make this so important to us as teachers. We can use this to help the students who wouldn’t draw otherwise to get out of their comfort zone and experiment.
Process over pretty. Embrace the imperfections.
