I met Mike in person earlier this year and we set upon a journey to turn his successful book, The Sketchnote Handbook, into a full-day workshop, complete with presentations, activities, contests, and more. I put my Instructional Design and Andragogy caps on to create a curriculum that would hopefully make Malcolm S. Knowles proud. Of course, having incredible source material made the process all-the-better.

Today, all the planning became a reality. We held The Sketchnote Workshop in Milwaukee at the fantastic Stone Creek Coffee cafe. As the pilot workshop, we limited attendance to 8 so we could gather valuable feedback and enhance the course even further. The participants were amazing, the day was amazing, and I feel very honored to have helped produce such an event. I cannot wait until the next workshop!
