Description:
This is running as part of the Research Methods Festival, all participants of the course will be entitled to a free Festival Pass. Please see our web page for more details: 2021 Research Methods e-Festival (ncrm.ac.uk)
Ever been to a conference and been disengaged as you view yet another slide of words which are too small to read? Taken pages of notes, which you never read? Find visual images and colours useful, but not sure where to start? If so, this is the course for you!
Our brains capture and process information differently - if you’re a visual learner (over 50% of people are), you may find creative approaches to capturing key ideas through text, images and other graphic elements useful.
During this short course you will:
- be introduced to the benefits of visualising information
- explore the basics of producing visual records of information for presentations and note taking
- experiment with different techniques for producing engaging presentations and memorable notes
There is no one size fits solution, but by the end of the course you will be equipped with some approaches to play around until you find the way that works for you.
The course is interactive and requires you to spend time between the sessions to practice.
Please come prepared with plenty of paper (or a sketchbook), coloured pens and post-it notes.
This course will run from 9:30 - 12:30 (BST) on Monday 25th and Thursday 28th October and will be charged at the one day full day rate.
