I love this sketchnote story from Desmond Tan:

Dear Mike,

I am a Doctoral student in the Oxford University Department of Education. After buying your sketchnote book, I plucked up the courage to give it a try. I am a terrible drawer and after some practice, I became slightly ok with it.

I had a presentation recently where I had to present methodological issue in my research project. I took this opportunity to not use the powerpoint but hand out my sketch note! I drew this sketch in a few hours after some planning. The sketchnotes were photocopied and

distributed to peers! It was certainly something new and I hope to try it again in future seminars and presentations. There is some room for improvement, definitely!
