my favorite hack for notes (read the comments)

⬇️ my favorite hack for notes

l used to think that writing down everything the professor said was the best way to take notes since l wouldn’t miss anything.

But in reality I couldn’t write as quickly as the professor spoke so I would miss many of the important concepts.

Then when exams would come around, I was left with so much revision to do because I didn’t encode the material properly the first time around. 🙅🏻‍♂️

Instead, I found one of the best hacks was to challenge myself and come up with questions regarding the content. This made me take the additional step of asking myself “how could this material be tested”?

Therefore, I wouldn’t be writing as much but I was undergoing higher-order thinking which actually enabled me to deeply learn the material anyways!

Moreover, I had a PERFECT review sheet of questions for me to practice active recall with after class. I would go through these for 20 minutes and immediately be able to identify my strengths and weaknesses! 🙇🏻

TRY IT OUT.

This is, basically, what I recommend to my third/fourth graders: related questions and personal connections.

This is such a great practice. Studying is meant to remember core concepts and some specifics, NOT the entire U.S. Constitution. Unless if that's your homework... 💀

You & Justin Sung single handedly carry the Meta-Learning Space, nice to see you suggesting similar things but with a different focus, thank you so much!

[queenmadison]

[KawazakiCago-kbwi]

The problem is the shitty questions in exams which focus on the bulk of your answer .

You‘re such a blessing🥲🌷a quick question;did you pose these questions before the lecture and then try to note the answers during the lecture or did you pose the questions actively during the lecture?

Right now I am at a stage where I am mentally exhausted, emotionally distraught and sometimes numb and physically weak, when I tried to look into some of the good advice you have been giving us, I couldn't process anything.
Now this is happening constantly and even before I finished my second semester exams recently I couldn't read or revises I would pick my book up and feel a lot of disturbance and no form of reception to anything and a lot more.
How can I get help?

Question! What tablet do you use for note taking? I've been looking at getting a Remarkable but I'm old so am wary of moving from paper to the tablet - does using it maintain the kinetic learning pathways of the brain?

Hii
Can you help me please
I am a pharmacy student and while studying i can understand everything but i can't remember much of it and it takes a long time to remember i usually feel not to study . And also every time i open the topic after some time ( like a week or after 3 days ) i dont remember a thing, it just feels familiar but again takes the same amount time 😪. So studying feels like hardwork. I like understanding the topic but it's only good if i remember right

[HannaSherin-viqc]

Can you explain the routine of your study in single video

[notsotechie]

Sounds smart, alas I'm the type to not get the theory until it's practically shown with an example..would appreciate some insights..

[lovex_amelia]
