Here’s my first collection of my adventures in sketchnoting:

Really loving how I am developing a style, a voice, and confidence in my drawing and note taking.

Another benefit that I am finding of sketchnoting: I am becoming a much better listener.  I find myself being more careful with what I write and sketch, and as a result am more aware of what is happening.  The old note taker would be able to only focus on one thing at a time, but as a result of sketching, I am becoming a more active and in-tuned listener.

This has HUGE classroom and instructional implications, by the way.
