your notes and summarize it better so it is easy to read and more clear to understand.
First, the images above are my note that I have taken during my econ class on 3/2/11. It was a day for a review for the exam that was coming up.
I started to gain many informations as possible while the professor was lecturing. And I wrote down almost all the words that he said during the
lecture.
The image above has a slight change after the class. So after the lecture, I have came home and tried the 20 minute test prep along with the SU/Cornell notes. So, when I was rereading through the notes, I have summarized and shortened the notes that I have taken from the lectures so that I can just focus on to main points when I am studying through the notes. So the red writing the left side of my notes is what I had reduced from the black writing notes I have done on the right side.
After trying the SU/Cornell note taking strategy, I really loved the idea of this note taking. I am a type of learner, when I am in the lecture I do write all the words that professor is saying and I am just too focused writing bunch of informations at once, so after the lectures are done I have no clue what the professor was talking about because I was so busy just writing. So this technique has helped me a lot. Writing bunch of informations, then coming home and rereading and reducing the notes so I can read better not only helped me gain informations better but it has also helped me easier to read. I definitely recommend this strategy for those students who are kinesthetic learner just like me!
I did To-Do Notes for this week's strategy and I enjoyed reading your blog that I couldn't get to try this week. I think it's a great strategy that would also be helpful to me. I'm not a good note-taker who just writes whatever the professor mentions and show us on powerpoint slides or boards. It would be really helpful to me as well to organize good notes for review for the tests. Good job.
ReplyDeleteI like how you used different colors of ink to record what was said during class, and what you wanted to add after class. As a visual learner, the different colors help me organize the class information further.
