Various forms of graphic recording and graphic facilitation

In the 1990's graphics or visuals were used as a creative way of teaching pupils in schools, educating students at University and in the market place in businesses.

Graphic coaching, a one-on-one situation, helping someone cope with difficult situations in their lives.
