Level 4 Unleashing Creativity: Mastering the Basics of Sketchnoting

with Dale Towner, Scrum Master, Bankwest

Discover how sketchnoting can elevate your note-taking experience, boost memory retention, and make information truly stick as we delve into the fundamentals of sketchnoting.

Whether you’re a seasoned artist or you believe you can’t draw a stick figure, bring your curiosity and together we will explore Containers, Fonts, Symbols, People, Colours and Sketchnote Layouts. You’ll take away practical tips to visually capture presentations in real-time. Your notes may never be the same again.

Fay Burthem and Dale Towner will be in the lounge with tips, tricks and examples during the conference and would love to see your key take-aways and ‘Aha!’ moments. If you’re more comfortable letting your notes do the talking there will be an interactive mural where you can share them or just meet other agile-ists over coffee and explore other’s perspectives.
