Visual note taking is an eclectic combination of words, stick figures, shapes and designs to take notes and make notes. Taking notes is when you transcribe what a presenter or author is saying/writing. Making Notes is when you note down something for you that the speaker or writer has sparked in you. Often my Note Making is when something I have heard or read has sparked the idea for a song - either a song that the presenter can use in their presentation or a song that I might write myself. Sometimes my Note Making is related to methodology of presenting - how has the presenter portrayed their information? What methods have they used (or not used) in getting their messages across? Then, importantly, what does this mean for me as a learner and an educator? My Visual Journals started when I was around 12 years of age and continue to continue. They are my favourite resources and a document of a learning life in action (potholes and all). Check out our CapMaps DVD at The Shop www.glenncapelli.com
