Sketchnoting

I encourage you to create sketchnotes of the talks, then share them on social media by using the #webexpo and the #sketchingforux hashtags :)

If you are a beginner sketchnoter, here is a little inspiration for you: the Agile Australia conference invited 11 students to live sketchnote the conference talks, and for many of them it was their first time they tried out sketchnoting! Take a look at their sketchnotes here, their results are really motivating.

Sketchnote at least one talk! You can start by adding just a few icons, visual anchors.

“Sketchnoting — or visual note-taking — is a really effective technique for capturing and distilling notes from conference talks, in a way that plain written notes (or typing on the keyboard) can’t match. Research has always shown that we are more engaged, and have better information retention and recall when using visuals as well as words.”

Here you can check out videos from the previous years, watch some of them and practice your sketchnoting skills! ;)

Meet You There

I’m really looking forward to attending WebExpo 2018, and to meeting like-minded design professionals, conferences are great opportunities for learning from each other!
