So there are school models that are anti-technology and here is one example from my northern neighbors. I see the point but in the schools I work with technology can not be ignored and students will not put them away- so embrace what the students bring. Teach with Technology, but I can see the point in not using technology. It can be a distraction.

Ever heard of Sketchnotes? In case you haven’t…it’s visual note-taking. This is a great Powerpoint [and another] explaining the how and what and why.
I’ve been experimenting with sketchnotes for sermon notes, and have been slowly encouraging my students to try it out in class and anytime they’re listening to people talk. Some of them have really grabbed hold of it and love it. I’d like to utilize it more in the future - or at least teach it as a skill.
