✨Take notes✨It sounds easy enough, but it is a complicated skill – especially when you’re listening in one language and writing in another. Therefore, learners tend to take verbatim notes (word-for-word notes); it takes a lot of time and seriously hinders your ability to understand and recall your material.
To help UEHers conquer notetaking skills, the English Zone and the Schools of Foreign Languages are organizing a workshop on “GO CRACK THE CORNELL METHOD OF NOTE TAKING”.
This workshop will focus on improving your understanding of what notetaking is. Developed by a professor at Cornell University, Cornell Notetaking System helps students take better notes and memorize more to become active and more efficient learners.
You will be shown how to implement this technique and:
– Creating your own template
– Implementing the Cornell method properly
– Tips on effective studying to remember content (for tests)
