potatofarmgirl:incognito-princess:marsupials-of-mars:mindboogling:I don’t really know how to describe this feeling other than stressful, so I decided to draw itPlease let me draw and “sketchnote”Ugh I know it“If you’re drawing you’re not listening.” Absolutely untrue!! It’s ‘optimum arousal’. It’s why people can sing along to the radio while their driving to work and not worry about missing turns, but they need to turn down the music to navigate to a brand new address. Driving to work has become muscle memory and you actual need an outside stimuli to keep you’re brain paying attention. You need more brain power to navigate something new, so the music is now a distraction.Same thing with people who listen better while doodling. If you’re an auditory learner you need something to occupy your vision and kinestics to optimally listen to what you’re supposed to learn. Auditory learners listen better when doodle- fact! (fyi- I’ve been a teacher for 16 years. I know what I’m talking about.)I luckily had a few teachers in high school who let me doodle in my sketchbook (I’d keep notes with what they were talking about on the same page, just in case they needed to check.)And…. I had a teacher threaten to throw my book in the trash, before the class even started. What a peach. -- source link
