IronHack Prework: My First Sketch Notes

To the left are my very first attempts at sketchnoting to the Ted Talk by Margaret Gould Stewart (Facebook’s director of product design): How Giant Websites Design For You.
My very first thought went it comes to visual note taking or Sketchnotes is “Wow what a great tool, I wish i would have picked this up in college or high school” It felt great to know that I have a new tool at my disposal.It’s also a lot harder than it seems and you have to be very choosy in what you sketch. But its also a lot more fun. I do feel i did retain more of the information in the talk since i had to ascociate it with an image. This way of taking notes seems to jog the memory a bit more that just writing.
I feel like the notes did improve at the second try, with some practice I could see how you can become very good at this; especially after you build library of icons for yourself.
Will definitely try to practice and use this way of note taking.
