Visual Note-Taking

Image from the talk “How the progress bar keeps you sane” at ted.com

I was always wondering if any of the progress bars that I normally see, were realistic about the percentage of progress and the graphical representation, after this video at Ted Talk I can see that not at all.

This was why I choose this topic to make my exercise for Ironhack, the exercise consists of taking notes more visually, in real-time and trying to focus the big picture and let go the details

The exercise was quite fun, but I needed words to support the drawings, another way the exercise would be unintelligible. I guess with practice the result would be better and less dependent on the text.
