Note Taking Tips From StudyBlue
- Make it stick with video and audio – manual or online visual assists can help you remember
- Less is more – capture the hot button words that will stick out and trigger you to remember the main point rather than trying to cram too much on one card or bullet
- Tools of the trade – use flashcards, highlighters, or other study tools that help you rather than the typical notebook and pen
- Make it fun – acronyms, festive highlighting, songs or even rhymes can help you capture information in a way that will be easy to remember
- Try out every style until you find the one that works for you –test different approaches and styles, study what you capture and see what actually resonates. Everyone is different, so you need to be honest about what is working and what is not, adjusting your study habits as you go
