Many of you know that I love sketchnoting. It's been a longtime personal and professional practice that I enjoy. I invited Emily Francis, Pamela Broussard, and Lauren Sheppard to the roundtable to discuss sketchnoting with multilingual learners. I've seen their work with students and wanted to pick their brains about how they implement this powerful instructional method.
In this episode, you will hear how they define sketchnoting but more importantly how they use it with newcomers and with MLs at various levels of English proficiency. They explain lessons and give us tips to get started. Whether you are brand new to sketchnoting or have been doing it for a while, you will enjoy hearing from these three educators. I was honored to visit with them.
