What are doodle notes??
Doodle notes are a visual note-taking strategy that will increase student engagement, focus, creativity and concept retention. Recent studies have found that doodling or taking visual notes while studying science material can help enhance learning, engagement, and reasoning. Teaching students to use doodling in class will help them remember more, focus on the topics at hand and generally enjoy the lessons more.
Lead your class through the notes with the included reading and teaching slides, or assign independently and review when they are finished. This assignment would also make great sub plans!
