In order to be successful with this, you need to know how you best learn  (and it is not the same way as your peers). Complete each survey below to decipher what type of learner you are, and thus what note taking style will work for you.

Note Taking and preparedness

How will you organize your notes and materials for your classes?  Your school shopping list in college includes you making decisions on type of notebooks, pens, highlighters, small post-it notes, or are you trying the all "digital thing?"

Below are 3 methods you might try for note taking.  Remember in high school we deliver notes the way we "think you learn", and in college you need to take notes the way you "know you learn."
