So, I’m taking part in a massive online open course called Creativity, Innovation and Change. The 8-week-long course has just started and I listened to a set of videos. I listen and learn in a better way if I draw, so here are my sketchnotes on the first topic: Uncovering your creative identity.
Linda's Sketchnotes 
Nice notes Linda, I am doing the same course. Some exciting times ahead!
I am also doing the course and I love your sketchnotes!
That is fantastic ;
Very nice
Nice Sketchnotes but how did you do it
I used my iPad and an app called Adobe Ideas. That’s how.
I like the way you are doing things
Thanks everyone for the comments! I just did the video quizz after a couple of days from doing this, and I’m amazed how well I remembered everything! I think it’s because sketchnoting activates the brain in a whole different way when it comes to learning.
Hi I am taking the course too and I love people who are artistic and can map out notes as brainstorms are held etc. Your notes are great. I used to be more visual and could take notes with drawing and such….it’s not easy for me to display ideas graphically although I would love to learn. Any resources for beginners? Alicia
I recommend Mike Rohde’s book, The Sketchnote Handbook: http://rohdesign.com/book/
Also, check out resources by googling with search words like “visual listening” and “graphic facilitation”.
Great job on capturing the essence of week 1.
Hello, I’m taking the notes i do better not visually.But to each its own.
This is great!
Hi Linda, the energy behind your sketch notes literally “pop” off the page. I, too, am excited about the course!
I am also taking the course and thought that I would share with you some sketches that I made during this first week of the course. I created an animated video of some sketches I made while developing my Life Ring. I also used an iPad (paper app by 53).
Wow! Thanks for sharing – that looks great!
This is excellent, well done
Wow, beautiful Rhian, I use Paper by 53 too, but hadn’t thought of using it for the life ring!

The life ring is amazing 🙂 good job!
I am definitely feeling inspired to try to do sketch notes. The seem to be a great way to get to the essence of things. I am not so very artistic but I do doodle a lot, getting some purpose in the doodling seems to be a good thing
Linda! I am loving this. I am also in the same course. 🙂
Wow, I love your sketch notes. I am typing my notes and seeing what you did makes me want to go back to paper and circle something!
Reblogged this on Shaun R. Smith and commented:
Linda blew me away with her #sketchnotes of our MOOC Creativity, Innovation and Change offered on Coursera. Week 2 just started yesterday so if you have any interest, look at Linda’s Sketchnotes as a summary of week 1 and where this class will go. I am now inspired and I hope you are too!
This is my second course with Coursera. Am as excited as when I did the first one. Creativity Innovation and Change interested me as I was hoping to learn more about thinking outside the box Thanks for sharing Linda. Your sketchnotes were awesome
Like your sketchnotes very much! Nice work and thanks for sharing!
Love those notes! Very creative.
