Event Information

Matt Wichern

In our classes, we often “zone out” and go on automatic pilot – copying down everything our prof is saying, and then never returning to those notes we took again. There are specific note-takingstrategies that can significantly cut down on the amount of time you have to spend studying or seeking information you recorded. This hands-on workshop will give students specific note-taking strategies that will make studying faster and easier, as well as aid in active learning and recall of class material. Learning Outcomes: 1. Learn to take “active” in class notes. 2. Learn the benefits of reviewing notes consistently, rather than saving note review for right before an exam. 3. Learn several specific note-taking strategies that work for different types of courses.
