Visual Note-Taking for Educators: A Teacher's Guide to Student Creativity
A step-by-step guide for teachers to the benefits of visual note-taking and how to incorporate it in their classrooms. We've come a long way from teachers admonishing students to put away their drawings and take traditional long-form notes. Let's be honest: note-taking is boring and it isn't always the most effective way to retain information. This book is a guide for teachers about getting your students drawing and sketching to learn visually. Whether in elementary school or high school, neuroscience has shown that visual learning is a very effective way to retain information. The techniques in this book will help you work with your students in novel ways to retain information. Visual note-taking can be used with diverse learners; all ages; and those who have no drawing experience. Teachers are provided with a library of images and concepts to steal, tweak, and use in any way in their classrooms. The book is liberally illustrated with student examples from elementary and high school students alike.
Visual Impact
Inspired by frequent questions from colleagues, students, and organizations, this book answers a variety of topics, literally arranged A-Z. Each "chapter" is arranged in two pages, one with text while the adjacent page demonstrates a visual representation of that same information. The book is designed to dip in and dip out of, to provide theories and ideas that are immediately applicable for busy communicators, and to inspire anyone whose goal is to communicate more effectively. You will learn quickly that when you sketch more, you think more, and that visual communication is a powerful thinking process.

The Nine Pillars of History
Human society, as we know it, goes back some 200,000 years to a time when we learned to speak and communicate our thoughts. The Nine Pillars of History are defined from nine basic requirements for a healthy and prosperous society during the following 190,000 years of Hunting and Gathering. Sexuality, a fundamental human need that goes even further back in history than society, had to be mitigated with a social rule: The Golden Rule. The Nine Pillars of History are used as non-political common denominators to judge the political evolution of some thirty major countries or cultures. In addition, the Pillars are partnered with the Golden Rule to explore five world religions, Hinduism, Buddhism,...
