‘while drawing, learners actually (meta)cognitively process the information. It doesn’t matter if the drawing looks nice or not, as long it’s doing its job: explicating/demonstrating the content.’

It’s long been known that drawing something helps a person remember it. A new study shows that drawing is superior to activities such as reading or writing because it forces the person to process information in multiple ways: visually, kinesthetically, and semantically. Across a series of experiments, researchers found drawing information to be a powerful way to boost memory, increasing recall by nearly double. Via Elizabeth E Charles

A useful tool for creating interesting Google slides presentations

I believe these kind of sites are really useful tools to have in mind in order to illustrate our educative videos and/or the work that we do as teachers in the current situation. Creating our own icons to illustrate our slide presentations, videos, infographics, among others, is so necessary sometimes since we don't seem to find the accurate icons to express what we need in the ones that are provided by the apps.

Art Teachers: This was made for y'all. Depending on where you are in your curriculum, pen-and-ink might not be the kind of exercise you'd do as a formal classroom assignment, but it could still be a great way to stretch your students. I know some artists who design a character (an alien? a pumpkin?) or pick a character to draw doing all of the #Inktober prompts. How would you have your alien doing "Swift?" "Squeak?" "Cloud?" "Mysterious?" ...or have them pick a favorite universe to draw in. Harry Potter, Star Wars, Adventure Time -- and have them still do the #Inktober prompts Via John Evans

This is so fun to play with-I can NOT draw a bit but could do wonders with this tool at https://www.autodraw.com/ It figures out what you're trying to draw and gives you a tool bar with your "choices" to select from-then save it as an image wheverever you like or share a link to it (from the menu): https://www.autodraw.com/share/O4ANZR6Y83T9
