Hey guys! Happy New Year!
In today's video I walk through step-by-step how I take notes, particularly for my uni lectures. I explain how to determine what information to include, how to structure your notes with my self-created "SSDD framework" and even how to make them a lil aesthetic :)
Hope you enjoy and can use some of these tips!

@SuperTheDestiny 3 жыл бұрын

What is the difference between notes you take on your iPad vs the one you write on physical piece of paper? If the physical paper version just a condensed/short version of your lecture contents? I have seen many study channels do this but I never ask about the difference, so I am just curious ☺️☺️ I annotate notes and add anything extra that are important on the lecture slides on the iPad then I would use scrap paper to do active recall, practice answering learning objectives.

Would you recommend getting the Tombow Dual Brush Pens or the Zebra Mildliners? Also, do you complete textbook questions and exercises on loose leaf paper, or do you do them in a separate notebook that's not in your notes?

I prefer tombow as there are more colours and you can also brush letter with it so 2 in 1 use!

@@studycollab Thanks so much! Oh yeah that's true, I'm pretty new to brush lettering so I'm going to keep practising and hopefully buy a pack! 😊

@ellan1664 4 жыл бұрын

There are Zebra mildliner brush pens now too and when I was first starting out with brush lettering I found them a lot easier to use because they're bouncier than the tombows. And with those brush pen versions the other side has an extra fine tip instead of the regular fine tip on the normal mildliners, so you can write about as thin as a 0.7mm pen

im in IB and im finding it really tough to find time to take completely handwritten notes. sometimes just jotting down main points from the textbook into a doc is the only thing i have time for. one of my teachers make us print her own notes out though so those ones are easy to just annotate when shes explaining and there isnt really much need for rewriting new notes

@peggyyau2009 4 жыл бұрын

I usually just ignore the teacher and do work from another subject. If he sets homework I just do it while he is talking. My teachers all send the presentations to us anyway so there is no need to listen to them for 3 hours.
