@coconutshed: @elizabeth.liz200 here you go! in short, i don’t think you NEED an ipad for uni. but if you find that writing things down doesn’t really reinforce memory for you, it could be beneficial to just download the slides and write supplementary notes on top. if you find that writing things down reinforces memory (like me), i think using your laptop for notes is more than enough. #notetaking #uoft #StudyTips #notetakingtips

the way to get lectures down is 1. audio record 2. type notes on things that seem interesting, not everything just what pops out at you 3. review audio recording and structure it into "real" typed notes 4. hand write anything your having difficulty remebering or doing 👍

I usually skip study tips because most of them are dependent on ai 😭 like why are most of them sponsored by a “ new “ ai studying app ?

pro memorizer here (self-proclaimed) and pro note-taker (I take notes while watching movies for fun) get a pen. A plain black, brown, blue, red, any color pen that won't smudge and writes smoothly. Take that pen, get a notebook, write anything, everything, write when you sneeze, write when the professor sneezes. Don't worry about them being pretty or neat. Go home/library/somewhere quiet after the lecture, rewrite the class notes you just took. Organize them, summarize, pick and choose what is really important. Studies have proven that handwriting improves cognition and absorption/understanding. Similar studies have proved repetition, summarizing, and rewriting things also improve cognition, absorption, retention, and comprehension. It's time consuming, you will develop Carpal Tunnel, but you'll understand, you'll remember, you can keep those notes forever/pass them on to others

This is probably one of the most honest note taking/study advice video ive come across after a long time of just seeing ai app advertisements disguised as study tips etc etc 😐 tho i get it and sure i respect the hustle, its just so rare to find a genuine one these days

What I do is use my phone to audio record the lecture while hand writing sloppy notes/shorthand notes. I listen to the audio and Star/bulletpoint important things the prof said on the sloppy notes. Afterwards, I write and organize the notes on paper and make it cute, which doubles as studying. It’s a lot more work than just typing notes, but it gave me a 4.2 in high school with AP and college classes

Girlie, just to reiterate: GoodNotes with lectures, write down extra on goodnotes as well and what Prof is saying. Then go and type in OneNote after? I was a bit confused with that part you mentioned?! ✨😁

Look at your syllabus ahead of time like 1/2 days and Read you chapters/books prior to class & Take notes. Write down the questions you have in the relative section. Then go to class and record the lecture using your laptop camera or an audio recorder. And fill in only details or answers to the questions you had. Re-watch/listen your lecturer incase you missed something. There are different type of note taking even like Mind Mapping get a plane note book turn it landscape & add to it. Find a method that works for you! Try to Do your assignments the same day, at the minimum start them! Another option for slides is to print them out & fill them in. Handwritten note taking is very effective in retention. Yes, there a selective few, who can get by not cracking a book, take notes or use apps. But their journey is not yours. Your there to focus on your future, use it wisely. Good luck kiddos.
