How great that you do sketchnotes,  @mjennings ‌! Wow, that is just so cool! Sketchnoting is something I would like to learn to do someday also. I know sometimes companies bring sketchnote artists to conferences specifically to create graphics like the one you did here; that would be something fun to see in a future InstructureCon. And maybe even a class in sketchnoting that we could all take too! 

For me, the most powerful part of Jared's keynote was about access to education in prison, and I found what I think is the video he showed during the keynote (or close to it anyway):

Larch Corrections Center & Canvas - Pursuing Knowledge While Incarcerated - YouTube 

And thank you again for the awesome shirt ... and the clue about its secret superpower! 🙂
