Abstract

Visuaalseid märkmeid (sketchnotes, visual notes) on kirjeldatud kui rikkalikke märkmeid, kus kombineeritakse käsikirjalist teksti, joonistusi, käsitsi tehtud tüpograafiat, kujundeid ja visuaalseid elemente nagu nooled, kastid ja jooned (Rohde, 2013). Visuaalsetest märkmetest on täheldatud olulist kasu õppimisele, eeskätt info mälus talletamisele ja meenutamisele. Märkmete tegemist joonistustena saab käsitleda kunste lõimiva õppe komponendina. Uuringu eesmärk on kirjeldada õpilaste kogemust joonistatud märkmete tegemisest 6. klassi ajalootunnis, et teha järeldusi selle meetodi rakendatavuse kohta. Õpilased tegid üheteistkümnes ajalootunnis visuaalseid kokkuvõtteid käsitletust. Peale ajalookursuse lõppu täitsid 77 osalejat küsimustiku ja 8 osalejaga viidi läbi intervjuu. Õpilaste hinnangud lubavad järeldada, et selline kunstipõhiste märkmete tegemise viis võib sobida ajalookursuse osaks, kuna sel on potentsiaali toetada õppematerjali meeldejätmist, loomingulist eneseväljendust ja eneseregulatsiooni. Artiklis käsitletakse visuaalseid märkmeid ühe võimalusena lõimida kunste koolitundi.
