Student Artists Share The Reasons for Their Drawings
December 12, 2022
Sketching illustrations in class can be beneficial to student learning and engagement while making classes and lectures more tolerable. According to “The Thinking Benefits of Doodling,” a 2016 study by Harvard University, doodling gives a break to parts of the brain and improves memory. Five students shared notebook art they created in class. Each artist expressed themselves differently with their sketches as they described what they were drawing and why.
