Visual Recording facilitates literacy and understanding. It's not dumbing-down, it's COMBINING the VISUAL & VERBAL ways of thinking
Einstein's ideas didn't come in word form..they were visual, ephemeral, and he spent years making the words and math fit the images he knew were true.
Graphics help the brain process multiple streams of information and work through complex situations...this is real life, not theory... it can't be reduced to bullet points.

The graphics are CREATED LIVE, so the group validates what's on them.

lots of different examples & styles:
