Five Quick Tips For Better Notes

  1. Preview the reading. Spend 1-2 minutes and skim through the material. Look at headings to see what the major concepts will be. Use these to help check your understanding by turning the heading into a question.
  2. Jot down facts that are new to you. (terms, dates, names, etc.). By making a short note of these you are actually building yourself a custom study tool to work on memorization for the exam. If you don’t make note of them, how will you ever know what you need to memorize?
  3. Look for cues in the text. Words like “3 steps to…”, bold words, or italicized words can indicate important information.
  4. Make note of questions you have about concepts. Just make a note, flag it as a question, and keep moving. This keeps you from getting stuck on one thing for too long, but you also won’t forget it was fuzzy. You’ll be able to come back later and decide if it does make sense after reviewing more of the resource or if you need to dig back into the area.
  5. Build your notes in question/answer form. Use the objectives and/or headings to give you some starting questions and work to answer them in your own words. These also convert really well on quizlet.com for easy review.

Try It Yourself: 30-Minute Challenge

  1. Grab your textbook, notebook, and a pen.
  2. Do a quick 2-minute preview to get an idea of what is covered in the upcoming chapter.
  3. Using the other tips above, take notes on the chapter.
  4. Review your notes. Are they short? Will they help you to study for the exam a couple of weeks down the road?

How I'll be tracking habits in the Spring! I'm excited, I did something similar from January but I've added a bit more detail to define achieving the habit, and I think the discipline is really helping me feel good right now.

Guess who’s back on tumblr? After opening my studygram account last week I thought it would be a nice idea to continue my studyblr journey!

I started the 5th semester of my degree in chinese literature, history, language and translation and it’s getting hard tbh but really love what I’m studying!

Today was a reset day of skincare, healthy food and planning for August.

I’m going to have a really quiet month so I’m hoping to destress and focus on having as healthy a lifestyle as possible while I have the time. I don’t want to waste the last month of summer!
