Using Sketchnotes in PhD Research and Academic Practice

Summary/Abstract: This paper is a reflective account of using Sketchnotes both within Academic Practice and as a PhD Student. A brief summary of different types of Sketchnotes is discussed, together with details of how these have been used in practice, and evolved through practical experience. Examples are shared that highlight how Sketchnotes have been used within PhD studies and scholarly practices. Creating Sketchnotes have enabled an understanding of thought processes and facilitated open communication to others in terms of PhD research. Sketchnotes have also helped with retention of information and engagement. Through incorporating Sketchnotes into everyday practice, this has fostered connections with others and enabled communication of complex ideas visually. This reflective piece contributes to insights and deepens understanding in the area of visual representation in learning and teaching.
