Academic Tips Week 8 -- Cornell Notes

Hi all,

In most subjects you have an essay coming up. Let me encourage you now to take notes by hand (we actually learn much, much more than if we cut and paste on a computer).

Here is a form of note-taking that I find incredibly helpful. It uses a few more pieces of paper, but it prevents plagiarism, helps your thinking, and allows to organise and re-organise your material when it comes time to write.

They are called 'Cornell Notes,' and they work wonderfully well.

Go well, brothers and sisters. It is nearly time to start reading and thinking about your essay topics!

Warmly in Jesus
