Read MoreMany of you may be asking yourselves ‘What the hell are nudenotes?’. Simply put, nudenotes are a form of sketchnotes.
Sketchnoting is the synergy of sketching and note-taking into a single piece of visual communication. The goal is to better engage your brain with the content you are consuming, since your brain is using both the creative and logical parts of your mind.
