Editor's Notes
- Imagine a world without images, without pictures or photographs, no diagrams or instructions books without covers, websites with just words. presentations with just bullet points...wait that does happen!
- Imagine a world without images
- without pictures or photographs
- No drawings or diagrams
- or instructions from IKEA
- books without covers
- or illustrations
- websites with just words
- And presentations with just bullet points...hang on a moment some people still do that!
- I believe there are 3 types of people
- there are those who love using visuals integrate them into their lessons and may be taking visual notes right now
- and there are those who understand the potential of but may not be using them as often as they would like
- and there is the 3rd group who hated art at school, say they cannot draw, are wondering why should they use images and what use is this to me?
- Over the next few minutes I would like to Show you how I work with visuals
- Well over the next few minutes I would like to Show you how I work with visuals
- and Tell you how you can use visuals in your daily and professional life
- We live in a predominantly Visual World
- We are surrounded by images from the moment we wake up in the morning and check the icons on our phones and instagram images
- and like our students we watch videos to learn or entertain ourselves, and images help us choose cereal and the products we buy
- so why aren’t we all teaching with visuals?
- Ancient man captured their stories and conquests on the walls of their caves
- And as a child we all loved to draw to communicate and show our ideas and thoughts
- So what changes as we get older? why do we stop drawing?
- why dont we all draw now?
- our Eyes dart across page when we research on the web
- Looking for recognisable images or symbols to catch our attention
- We like to SEE images and our brains interpret them far easier
- so AGAIN why aren’t we all teaching with visuals?
- Think about your classroom
- your office
- or home
- What images do you use
- to inspire, ignite and inform?
- Images guide us
- Help us find what we are looking for
- They instruct us
- Map our ideas
- help us to interpret data
- Just as Music or smells can transport us back to a time a place or a person
- So too can images remind us of the past
- Senses are strong in aiding learning and memory
- And as John Medina tells us in Brain Rules, the VISUAL SENSE TRUMPS ALL
- But the real potential is when we combine them
- just as Text and image work better together
- Voice and visual
- And music and Photography
- And this intrigues me – the power visuals have to help us to remember I am useless at remembering lines and In fact each of these 92 slides are there to trigger my memory and to help me recall what I want to say
- I remember the Last 3 years of Learning 2
- My first in Shanghai, I remember Jabiz encouraged us to develop our PLN through Twitter
- In Beijing Ben recounted the story of his troubles on the metro in Japan
- And Dana Watts expanded our ideas about using iPads
- But do we remember the details of these and other talks months or years on?
- I have been taking visual notes for several years now as a Tech mentor to an ADE From early trials in Penultimate to using brushes and Adobe ideas today
- Last year Jeff at Learning 2 Singapore asked me to capture the L2 Talks through visual note taking
- I had not appreciated how difficult taking notes live could be!
- For all you cynics and drawing phobics out there the difficult part it is not actually the drawing
- It is about the thinking, The metacognition,
- and it is this skill that we should be teaching our students - to listen and synchronise our thinking in order to understand and to communicate this to others
- How could you use this with your students?
- How could you use this yourself?
- Wouldn’t meeting minutes be more engaging and easier to revisit and remember like this
- Or the steps in a unit plan
- Or the details of a book
- I was rubbish at taking notes at uni
- And terrible at remembering facts and figures at school
- Yet now I can capture my thoughts visually to help me remember and communicate to others
- on my blog I capture visual notes alongside my weekly posts to share my thinking with others
- thinking/contemplating the main message
- Or what I wanted to convey
- To communicate this visually
- Adding the details
- Or the main message visually
- For over 20 years I have banged on about the versatility and benefits of Art to deaf ears
- But now I hope you can all hear me:
- Understand you may not remember much of what I have said Would like you to take away this so many of you are already using visuals visuals reinforce learning and help us to remember VISUALS HELP US TO REMEMBER and DOCUMENT our Learning- add in Brushes animation here add animation: why arent we all learning with visuals??
- Visuals are crucial for memory and understanding: they help us to remember and they document our learning
- So I would like to leave you with a Challenge This weekend document your notes more visually
- using a simple drawing or note taking app on the iPad such as Adobe Ideas or Paper 53
- just like Shaun Kirkwood did last year
- and share them on Twitter using the hashtag L2visualnotes and please do this as there are lots of people following the hashtag who are not at this conference ready to learn from you!
- So that everyone can benefit from your learning 2
- So everyone can benefit from your learning 2
- The Power of Visuals: how are you going to use them?
