Note-taking strategy:  The Outline Method
Reason: The method favors my personal style of learning whereby I am able to listen, capture,
and jot down the main points into my computer’s word document in a simple but organized way.

How Outline method helps me Study: It helps me to capture key ideas, which I write to the left
side of the page, with any available explanation or subordinate point indented.

How it compares to other note-taking strategies we discussed this week

No particular type can be good for all students, as one type may work well for someone in mastering
content, but not effective for another student. At the same time, any method chosen will still require a
student to actively listen and think.
