A part in a series of hand drawn mindmaps, diagrams, and sketchnotes from my personal visual thinking collection.

I decided to mind map our conversation. The paper wasn't quite big enough and I only had two thick pens, but it was still fun.
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!

A colleague came to me with a plan to talk about a debate about World War II in her class — American isolationists vs. interventionists. We talked about her plans, and did some revision of these plans with diagrams and maps and Brainstorming!
Her class has 23 kids in it. We decided that we were going to have Roosevelt deliver a policy speech, and then have two teams under him — one would propose the specific lend-lease legislation; a group of opponents would try to undercut it. The opposition would then propose their own legislation and Roosevelt's team would try to undercut THAT. But then we were left with too many kids sitting on the sidelines. We tried to resolve it by imagining teams on the sidelines producing graphic design materials and propaganda that would support or undercut both sides — or that would serve as "voices from the extremes" which would help make clear what a dangerous time this was in American history.
Some of our planning revolved around having a "graphic design" team produce a newspaper that had all the technical data that each side would need in its newspaper — and to tie those newspaper designs to William Randolph Hurst and other newspaper demagogues of the 1920s and 1930s and 1940s.
We have two cultures, with different ways of working, different ways of communicating, even different objectives and priorities.
I didn't get started on this fast enough, but Blake saw that I was making a diagram of Cornell-style notes on the board, and decided that he wanted to do it. So I let him. This series shows his efforts to lay out the program. He left out a few bits, but he did great. Tomorrow I'll pick another student.
