Study Strategies!!

Some study strategies I have learned so far are different ways to take organized and helpful notes. There are a few ways to take notes, you can pick the one best for you. I use the Outline method which is where you have major topics as the headlines, and then indent with subpoints for that topic, then indent again if there is an important detail you would like to add. It is a clean and efficient way to take notes that allows you to see the most important topics and the details for that topic. Another note taking template is the Cornell Style notes, I think this is a good method if you learn well by critical thinking. On the left side of the paper you take notes during class, then on the right you ask questions. When going over the notes you can further dig into your questions and search for the deeper information. Finally, there is a MindMap way of doing thing, this is for visual learners. It is similar to Outline method but it is not vertical and just lines – you can use bubbles for main ideas and have “spider web” charts stemming from it to connect all the ideas. Which ever method you pick, they are all extremely helpful for taking thorough notes.
