From Using the Clock on Telecons (and from www.fullcirc.com/community/telephonefacilitation.htm)
"The Clock" - "The clock" can be used on conference calls to help people get and keep a sense of place and participation in a disembodied conf call. It can be used with structured online chats as well. Ask every one to draw a circle on a piece of paper and mark the hours like a clock. Then, each person is assigned a spot on the "clock" as they join the group. So the first person is 1 o'clock, the second 2, etc. If there are more than twelve, start adding 1:30, 2:30 etc. Use this initially to create a speaking sequence for intros, and then use it to ensure everyone speaks. Participants can make notations by names and use it as a visual tool to match names/voices/input. If you are doing multiple rounds of "speaking" vary the "starting position" on the clock.
Note that the template for the lower versions of the clock are available at the bottom of the blog post noted above.
At the end of my "Beyond the Five-Page Paper" workshop at the University of Iowa, I asked the facuty participants to brainstorm ways they might use visual assignments in their classes--and to do so visually.
Join ImageThink and your fellow sketchnoters for the official Sketchnote Meetup, March 10th at 12:30PM at the Create Meetup Tent, 101 Red River St.
From a mini-workshop I led for Boston area higher education technologist. "Harnesssing Visual Thinking for Project Planning." Great group with folks from Brandeis, Wellesley, Harvard, Brandeis, Tufts, Wheaton College, and Wentworth Institute of Technology. Thanks to David G. Wedaman of Brandeis for being the point man in coordinating the event!

I wanted to start sketching in black and white because first I want to improve basic drawing. Later I'll add color. It's my point of view of how I'd represent each word. Tell me what do you think! I'd really appreciate it!
I decided to go "minimal" for this round of sketchnotes. Also went home after the talk and listened to Eva-Lotta Lamm's talk at WebExpo 2010. :)
We have reached a point of deep conflict where neither side is willing to compromise. A positive resolution seems impossible.
Ideas can be abstract or invisible and that makes them harder to work with. Visuals help make them concrete and (obviously!) visible. Then they're much easier to work with and evaluate.
Try this easy exercise:
Take a black and white design you drew a while ago.* Imagine the entire image fully colored in at least 4 different colors. Try to see the entire image with as much detail and as vividly as possible. Take your time and wait to get a really clear picture in your head before moving on. Then, color the image in as you pictured it. Odds are, you'll probably change your plan a bit as you go along. When things become visible and tangible, it becomes much clearer what works and what doesn't.

Visualization has the power to reaveal things that are hidden and generate new insights.
Theyrule is a perfect example. It allows you to visually map the kieretsu-like relationships between board members of major publicly-traded companies.
I used theyrule to make the map above, which shows how the boards of Microsoft and Xerox are connected via General Electric.
The data was collected from company websites and SEC filings in early 2004, so it may not be completely accurate - companies merge and disappear and directors shift boards.
The brain loves patterns! Drawing simple patterns actually helps you become a better visual thinker and pattern finder, even when things are more abstract. And it helps you to more quickly find the simple patterns in more complex ones.
Try this:
Duplicate a black and white pattern design four times. Choose four colors, plus tints or shades if needed. Color the background the same on all four images. Then use the other three colors to color the main parts of the design, making each of the four copies different. Then put them all together and see how your original simple pattern suddenly becomes much more complex.
I did this one in Photoshop and flipped some of them horizontally to make things even more complicated, yet the original design is still quite simple.
See this previous blog post to see how to make this pattern and this for an exercise with color.
