In this episode, I talk with Raffaelina Rossetti and Karl Damke about their excellent work on lernOS to teach sketchnoting. LernOS is an open source platform for learning that relies on circles of learners to accelerate learning and provide both accountability and encouragement along the way. You’re going to love this episode!

4. Be honest while you’re setting goals
