Hey! Do you ever touch on or cover studying / note taking for students with learning disabilities, like ADHD or autism?

[@MisterMevs]

Dude, you saying "that struggle is what learning feels like" just unlocked a new viewpoint in my brain, i don't know. I've never looked at it like that before. Thanks

[@AdeptJL_Codes]

Same, now it all makes sense why i get higher score in exam and quizzes when i struggle studying compare to chill studying

[@nasrinnaz1376]

U r implying; struggling (straining ur head) is directly proportional to learning. & when u r just cramming u r not. (In my case cramming is a problem that's why). ?

1. Make your notes more visual 2. Use notes as an extension for your thinking - not a replacement 3. Don't just rely on your notes for exams 4. Constantly update your notes 5. Linear and non linear notes (non linear notes are better as you're able to link ideas) 6. Learn math with words at first, then apply with numbers 7. Write questions

Write questions and mind mapping - the most effective techniques

[@laraibqureshi7072]

Notetaking Tips 0:24 make your notes more visual Mind mapping 0:34 notes are meant to be an extension of you thinking. Learn by struggling Write notes after class Let your brain process info Don’t be worried about missing info in class, as everything is in your textbook anyways. 2:01 don’t over rely in your notes DO NOT reread your notes. This is useless. Instead use methods like active recall. (Questions) 2:47 constantly update your notes Version 1 - notes in class Group info together in later versions 3:39 linear vs non linear Non linear is more easy to visualise how everything is connected together Basically mind mapping 4:46 the best way to start learning maths is WITHOUT all the numbers Learn the math in words first Learn the concept then then the procedure 5:38 write questions Forces you to think like examiner Great review tool for exams

thank you for summarising everything I'll definitely look back at this as much as needed

[@e-genieclimatique]

in brief: This video emphasizes the importance of effective note-taking strategies for students. The key points include: 1. Make notes more visual: Use images, flowcharts, diagrams, or mind maps to better remember and process information. 2. Notes as an extension of thinking: Do not offload everything from the brain to notes immediately; instead, give the brain time to process information. 3. Don't over-rely on notes: Rereading notes can give the illusion of learning but true learning requires active recall. 4. Update notes constantly: Notes should go through multiple iterations to refine and condense understanding. 5. Linear vs. Non-linear note-taking: Understand the difference between these two methods and when to use each. 6. Note-taking in math: Start with a conceptual understanding in words before moving on to numbers and equations. 7. Write questions: Writing questions can help focus learning objectives, improve understanding, and create a useful review tool for exams. Ultimately, effective note-taking requires engaging with the material, adapting to different subjects, and continuously refining notes to ensure a thorough understanding.

Hearing Number Two articulated aloud made me have to stop what I was doing for a solid minute and reflect on every academic struggle I've ever experienced. Videos like these, through your wonderful ability to communicate and creatively discuss how we think and organize our thoughts, have gotten me excited about learning again.

Hey! I am a fellow nursing student. Is there a better way to study Fundamentals in Nursing?

[@Iddy267]

I really appreciate that you point out what learning "SHOULD" feel like. It puts it into a new perspective for me.

[@BalefulRogue]

I was guilty of typing or writing notes during lecture, but I found that time was better spent making quizlets or flashcards of the lecture material. I was more likely to view and study them versus rereading my lecture notes. I also made the notes and turned them into questions to better help me understand the material and learn it.

[@ThinkleaYT]

You helped me a lot to recover from my failure in 1st year of Medical School. I was heavily dependent on notes, tried to reading and re reading, and indeed it creates an illusion. After closely watching your videos I m focusing on making mind maps and doodles, sketches to remember the concepts. The idea of writing everything in class really sucks. I will focus more on reading standard textbooks. Btw Thank you so much ❤.

[@stayanonymourios]

the understanding phase of learning is to use note taking techniques i.e. Feyman technique, whole-part-whole, analogies, storytelling, t-tree, and/or the QEC, PSA and Cornell methods. Remembering phase = Active learning and spaced repetition i.e. pre test, stop and recite, writing qstns, immediate review of mistakes, delayed review, interleaving topics, retrospective timetable, shoe box method, teaching from memory, apps with algorithms, Remnote, Trello, Quizlet, Quizizz, Toggles, pnemonics, occlusion or fill in the blanks.

first I want to say, great video with many great tips which I definitely will apply. I now do take notes in class especially for anatomy/ pathology subjects, and doing this made it a huge difference. I do wish I could draw things out so i remember better, but the way the teacher moves on quick to next thing is a challenge I need to overcome. 2. Because of you (well both of you) I redid my test for anatomy, it went from 5,5 to 9,7!!! I worked so hard for this bloody test to prove myself I am not stupid (lol)!! so big big thank you!!! I realized anatomy is my favourite thing to learn.

it's amazing how I started taking my physics notes in the "non linear" way just yesterday and you posted about it today! but honestly, that's one of my best decisions ive ever made..I just got the whole context of the subtopics like real quick but just looking at it for once. and I also write some very important stuff that I don't want to forget randomly at the side of the pages and make a little cloud around it with a red pen(coz ive heard from some people that come to our clg to give us study tips say that red colour is alarming yk like in the traffic signals it means "stop") so when I'm trying to read my notes and see something red and I'll stop and see what it is. ps. everytime I feel unmotivated I watch your videos and there's this excitement building up in me to study more! thank you so much for making these kind of videos and helping many other students like me! very very helpful 💜

The chads who took notes of the video

[@josusmith790]

Hey I’ve been loving your content for the last year and a half. I really appreciate the effort y’all put into simplifying the information and visually representing it aesthetically. I do have one question from this video: How can I make connections in my mind while still following the teacher in class? I can get lost in my mind thinking through the information and then I lose the next 5 minutes of the lecture. It’s also hard for me to write down the information I’ve been connecting while the teacher gives new info that I’ll need to be doing connections as well. It would be awesome to have your insight.

[@Chutte_Mi]

Just the question I was looking for! I have the same problem. This is why i take so much notes. Because I feel like I take too long with trying to understand the information that I lose the next information that comes. For live lectures its bad. Even with pre-recorded ones its bad because even a section that only takes 2 minutes might take me double the time or more because I have to rewind after thinking a bunch...

[@watchuwant1560]

Sameee and looks like no answer is sight 😭

[@pazo5296]

Also a good learning technique I know is to just write down EVERYTHING you know about a specific topic. Then you compare with your notes and you will see what you forgot to write down. Things you wrote down, you probably wont forget, so you don't have to study something you already know. Things you didn't write down, you forgot, so you know what to focus on studying.

[@ojasvashishtha4453]

Notes are generally very helpful. It helps you gets the review of the whole chapter. First give chapter a read and then make notes. Use your own way to make notes which helps you understand things clearly. Especially if appearing in an objective exam, they just help you a lot. I have seen many good students losing 3-5 marks in an exam because they didn't make the notes earlier and just read their book for exam.

Being dyslexic, and having a learning disorder has over the years been very hard for me educationally. BTW I am now 72 years old, and I still struggle today to organize thoughts and process what people are saying to me. So mind mapping, and visual notes have been the only way for me to survive. I very seldom understand what someone is saying to me, on the first pass. Because my processing time is very slow. It has been frustrating over the years but some how I managed to graduate from high school and college Thank you I enjoy your videos and I am still learning

[@technocera]

00:00 Make visual notes and use them to understand the main idea. 00:51 Embrace the struggle of learning 01:38 Effective note-taking involves learning in class and not relying solely on notes for studying. 02:26 Rereading notes gives an illusion of learning 03:15 Condense notes through iterations and understand linear vs non-linear note-taking. 04:08 Taking notes on an iPad and stylus is ideal for conceptual learning. 04:59 Understand math concepts before memorizing procedures 05:48 Writing questions is a great practice tool for studying.

I absolutely love your app remnote! Ive never been too inclined to studying but using your app actually made me feel involved in my own study routine. My score improved so much. Thanks a lot

[@Thermospore]

I was a top 1% student in electrical engineering. my note-taking secret is I simply didn't take notes notes are just a scattered 3rd generation copy of the textbook. just go straight to the source 1. show up to lecture blind. don't take notes, just try to follow along. you won't be able to, but that's ok. the lecture is just a primer so you are more prepared to read the textbook 2. ideally the next day (give yourself a sleep cycle for things to sink in) go read the relevant section of the textbook. like, actually read and think about and understand all the concepts, equations, examples, and how they relate to what you already know. the textbook is your notes. after following this process, I know where everything is in the textbook and can refer to it as necessary. there are almost always nice tables and summaries and whatnot to refer to. only on rare occasions would I highlight or annotate something 3. ideally the next day, do the homework. it should be relatively easy, because you actually know what's going on and you have had some sleep cycles for it to sink in 4. rinse and repeat. before an exam, skim through the relevant sections to refresh your memory, and make a note sheet if allowed/needed

[@jimobrien6610]

Thanks!

[@yasminediallo4022]

This was very helpful! As a first year student I am kind of lost. Personally I prefer linear notes when I am in class because I can't find the connections and after class I make a mind-map. This was also an advise from my teacher: visual notes or summaries after class is better. Though I don't know how to take notes for microeconomics since there are a lot of graphs and equations.

[@Gigusx]

I haven't used Obsidian for that purpose yet, but just yesterday I was thinking it could be decent for combining linear and non-linear notes. The notes themselves are text-based and linear by definition, but you can look at them visually in the graph tool (it's just connections between files, and it's up to you how you connect them). Then there's the Canvas tool which they added recently which, well, lets you lay things down on a canvas, draw connections, etc. Since I already love using Obsidian it would just help me keep things in one-place, the drawback being that drawing capabilities are limited compared to drawing by hand or using drawing apps.

The problems are many when i take notes. I need to study history of art so it's kinda difficult sometimes. 1) from a TEACHER of my uni, he goes too fast, he doesn't let me process everything, there are many words(life of artists, details of artworks, connectoon with other artists) 2) from a textbook, my teacher is VERY VERY precise!! He wants everything to be perfect so He is very detailed, and when i read my textbook there are so many important things to notice about an artwork!! I need to write many things about an artwork

This is like the best note taking advice I've heard. But in many classes there's a wall of notes all neatly prewritten on the board by the teacher, and it's going to take the entire class time to get that all down. Somehow you gotta copy that all down while still somehow paying attention! THAT is an severely aggravating situation!!! Its really annoying when teacher is talking on a track that is not related to what they wrote on every inch of whiteboard in the room. And we have whiteboard on three sides of the classroom. It just doesn't work for me to try to copy notes for a whole class while also listening to a lecture. I can either take the notes, OR I pay attention to the teacher, and I feel just outright aggravated by this type of teaching. And this is a real problem for a Lot of people, and most of my teachers after 6th grade were like this! So, how can we deal with that situation? Especially if you either don't have a device or are not allowed to use it in class?

[@mayrejabagha4178]

I never used notes, i just think studying directly from the textbook is easier and doesn't waste time in writing the notes and making them pretty. Also in the textbook i don't miss informations because it's all there😅! Sometimes i think i study wrong because of all the videos about note taking but idk. Can you give me any advice?

[@sudharshantheproductivityg8908]

Are you getting good grades in your tests and exams

[@rickastleysmicrophone7544]

If it works for you then cool! But wouldn't it be a tedious job to open the textbook everytime to revise stuff? My study technique involves taking down notes of the important concepts and trying to apply them in the questions given in the textbook right after understanding the concept. . I then glance through the diagrams given and I try to frame all the possible questions from it. The key is to study the textbook efficiently. I sometimes even write meme references in my textbook so that I could corelate easily. Make the reading activity as engaging as possible.

[@KoiAcademy]

If it works for you go for it! For us the process of critically thinking and drawing mind maps and diagrams of the information is a very good way of condensing and making sure you really understand it

NGL - As a retired “adult”, I’ll say that after you graduate, you’re going to use a set of skills completely different from studying. ): When you’re in school, learn those interpersonal skills you will need to network before and when you have a job. When you’re older, keep up with technology so you don’t fall behind on… everything. And invest before you enter college, or even high school. Compound interest. Study hard - but only if you need to. It’s only one set of skills you *may* need in life.

I'm about halfway through the video, and I have a question. I agree with your second tip, that we should give our brain time to process the information _before_ taking any notes, but the thing is... In my school, note taking is compulsory. Like, everything the teacher teaches you in class, all the definitions and diagrams and whatever else, it must be there in your notebook. Then could you please suggest how I could implement this tip? Maybe create a seperate notebook for _my_ notes?

[@tawbaakhourbi6917]

From my personal experience, I used to have 3 notebooks for classes like these. The first one was for the compulsory note, the second was for the note I took when the teacher was explaining (mostly orally said things that I thought were important) and the third one was a conbination of the two. In the third one, I would consider the first notebook content as a study guide or the standard textbook, then I would use the content from the second one to try and better understand what's in the first and finally I would take notes from the final version of both the first and second merged together on the third notebook. The content on the third notbook was what I used to revise and prepare for my exams and it was very helpful! I hope this was of help and good luck! 👍

[@cubemage3336]

I 100% agree with the math part and would argue it's true for every field. Take chemistry or pathophysiology for example. You could either memorize 100s if not 1000s of pages of text... or you could understand the reactions, synthesis methods, the reason why you get certain symptoms, etc. Then it is so much easier to recall the info as well, since you redact a ton of redundant and repetitive info from your memory. Same reason why most text books refer to themselves a lot (see chapter 2, according to this table, etc.)

[@chukwuezeokoli4919]

When you expanded on your second point (use notes as an EXTENSION of your thinking), that kind of gave me an epiphany. Rather than copying down what the lecturer is saying and not actually absorbing any of it, I need to engage my brain through note-taking. Writing down questions about the topics as the lecturer talks, or noting a connection between two concepts presented would be a much better use of my time than mindlessly copying everything down.

[@sylviagarcia2225]

My best note trick is by copying each informations about a certain topic to my notes but here's a twist I read all the information I studied and then write everything I understood in my notes over and over again until I get everything in that notebook. It's much nicer if you write them all down with your own words instead of directly copying it from your research, you wouldn't remember if you just keep writing them down

The problem with making visual notes for me or atleast students in my country is that we are required to write full paragraphs on exams. As far I have heard in America and other western countries it's more likely that the exams are objective but here in my country we have subjective exams where we have to write full pages answers and proof on subjects like physics chemistry as well. Well people might say we can convert the images into paragraph while writing in exams but that kinda doesn't work. The word choices matter a lot and the FORMAT. I am a final year high school student who has taken sci stream. In every exams I see my teachers deducting hell lot of my marks just because my proof or the answers required more information and aren't long enough. I am honestly very sick of this way of teaching. We are all being fed up with things that aren't actually information.

I feel that by the time that you start offloading some of the info you are going to be missing what is currently being presented or you will forget and lose track of what you previously learned and now your screwed because you missed key points

any recommended tools to use to create mind maps and take notes all in one on laptop?

[@gufolo-fi7242]

Git mind, browser version is free and powerful. I discovered it some months ago, you can build endless maps

Hi, how do you sugget to take notes for a drawing subject? I find that just drawing is useless, and even pit a few notes, because i cannot remember the step, and sometimes they re just atep, but behind a single step there is a huuuge concept. Moreover, i find extremely difficult to take note on the ipad because of the text tools or similar ones, and even because i cannot print them. Thank you!

Could u show an example of the note taking method (like to use the notes as an extension of ur thinking) so it’s easier to visualize what u are saying?

Hey, i was just wondering if you have ever read and applied Tony Buzan's mindmap ideas in your work and life. Is your works any similar to it, different concepts, if so, what are those. I want to embark on the journey of mindmap, but there are so many ideas out there it feels overwhelming. Also, really appreciate your content . Helped me alot in many things

[@DiscoCEO]

@@terminallucidity Yeah i have checked his contents. He's a good coach, But unless you buy his course he doesn't show alot of practical examples. He mostly advertise his course by saying he provides alot of examples there. I don't have an issue with that, but one practical example is kinda more resourceful than talking about the issue ten times without a good example

Yes love both of them here’s a mindmap based on their work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWjNkHalgKlkjtU

Master tip: Read the chapter ahead of the assigned class. You’ll get that mental load lighter during class so you can focus on strengthening your knowledge instead of hearing the information for the first time.

Well I’m autistic so I tended to record the lectures because I took in information faster than I could write it, and it stressed me out trying to keep up. It’s honestly amazing I did as well in some classes.

What happens to me everytime was straight up notes, there are times that I couldn't attend classes and I just get a copy of the notes from my classmates.
