I very much enjoyed re-writing my notes for my Physics 141 lecture class using more detailed and specific visuals. Getting to see the problems we discussed in class with an actual visual representation of the pathways of the objects really helped solidify the concepts. I definitely think it solidified the fact that I am a […]

This is my avatar! I started off with an image taken by my friend of me taking an image of a friend. Tongue twister! One of my passions is film photography using cameras that I collect from the 1950-80s. In this photo I am using an old Rollei 35 SE to take a picture of […]

Throughout my film class, much of the note-taking process requires us to analyze elements of film—the lighting, setting, costumes, and more—in an effort to understand the deeper meaning and symbolism of certain motifs or characters. In this exercise, the process of selecting a specific frame from The Grand Budapest Hotel gave me an opportunity to […]

Sketch 3: In traditional text-based notes, information is recorded linearly, and can only be read a single way. Using this style of note taking allows me, as the notetaker, more freedom. I used my statistics notes from Bus350 class. The notes themselves were, prior to me making visual notes, very confusing. The topic of statistics […]

I thought that this sketch was a very interesting, and helpful exercise. Not only did it force me to review my notes from that Psychology lecture, but it actually helped me understand them even better. In my opinion, associating pictures and small descriptions with certain topics, simple to advanced, can really help me remember and […]

My visual notes page is all about supply, which I am learning about in my economics class. This section of notes highlights the things that can change supply specifically. The creative process was very different from taking traditional notes. Visual notes require a lot more time and critical thinking. However this critical thinking aspect allowed […]

In this Sunday’s sketch, I created a graphical form of my biology notes in our evolution unit. On the top, there is the anatomy of a phylogenetic tree that includes significant parts of a phylogenetic tree. The bottom picture are the stages of evolution theory, which was transformed from my notes written in words. Challenges […]

For sketch #3, I visually took note on my PSYC 110 class. For this class, sometimes i find it a bit hard to understand the concept because there were a lot of words I didn’t understand. Majority of those words are parts of the organ or a biological term; therefore, if I haven’t researched more […]
