CORNELLS METHOD ADAPTED

Let it be concise,

The worlds hardest task is not to fight against a tiger nor is it to bend a spoon. For revolutionaries
especially modern day revolutionaries, the hardest tasks is to gain practical knowledge and to convert the knowledge of other people into more practical knowledge. Too often members of even Azadidome have read great books from interesting and knowledgeable people. However, they are unable to provide the knowledge from the book to both themselves and others in a way that is useful. !

With our walk in the park series we aim to provide you with a couple of pages of Cornell notes,
which take you a 15-minutes or a stroll in the park to read.

Cornell Method Process:

This will be written in steps which should be followed with small adaptations depending on the context that you are in. "
1.

Convert the broad topic that you have selected into a question beginning with how eg. If you are
reviewing the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, then a possible question may be, How to get rich?
Tips: Make your question as simple as possible."

2. Keep a small space for introduction/preface. This would be completed later."

3. Write down a note on the right hand column of the Cornell Sheet."
4. In the left hand column, write a question preferably starting with why related to the note."
5.

Is your question relating back to the original topic question? If so go to 6. If not go to 7."

6. Is our response answering the question correctly. If not edit the question."
7.

Edit your question so it relates back to the original topic. "

8. Repeat 5-8 until you are happy with your note and question. "
9. After you complete all of your notes and questions, write arguments under the summary column.
Unlike the conventional Cornells method. In Azs Cornell, you will focus more on contextualizing
the information see CAP or PAC. "
