| College Success Tips | Do you like to write out notes in class? Do you prefer to hear instructions instead of just reading them? Do you enjoy seeing images or videos of new ideas to help you understand? Take a moment to complete the Learning Styles Inventory to identify study and note taking methods that may work best for you. |
|
The Cornell system is a popular form of note taking. I encourage you to explore it and try something new to see if it fits your style. |
||
Do you like to incorporate images in your notes? Maybe you consider yourself a more visual learner (see learning styles inventory above). The following video demonstrates both the Cornell system of Note taking AND how to add sketches to your notes. |

Do you feel as if you are losing track of assignments? Are you struggling to find time to study? Have you tried a weekly planner mapped with your schedule? This activity involves mapping your time on a Weekly Schedule. See the enclosed Excel File template. You can use color coding, changes in font, bold, italics, whatever you find most helpful. Time Map: Start by blocking out the time for activities you can't change (classes, lab, work, meetings, practice, etc.). Add in study time for specific classes in blocks no larger than 45 min without a break. Your goal is to have 6 hrs of study time per week for each of your classes. Study time can also include time spent working on lab assignments and homework. Don't forget to include some time for relaxing and fun. Your mind and body needs a break. Include some blocks of time for rest and exercise. Reflection: When you finish mapping your time, what have you discovered? Are there pockets of time you didn't realize were there? Are there better uses of your time for academics? Explain at the bottom of your time map. |
||
Connecting concepts or patterns across ideas we discuss in class sometimes requires time and reflection. Creating a map of the ideas we discuss and looking for how those ideas are connected can help integrate concepts from topic to topic and class to class enhancing our understanding. As you study for quizzes and exams, try using concept mapping to support your preparation. |

This brief video provides an overview of a concept map and steps for creating one. |
