GC415 – Notetaking Repair Tools – Three R’s of Notetaking – Reflect, Rewrite and Reformat Skills
GC415-S2 – Notetaking Maintenance – Reflect, Rewrite and Reformat – Summarizing and paraphrasing notes increase long-term retrieval. As directed, individually, with a partner or small group, in a two-step process, Alexa or Instructor will request students to reflect and rewrite their notes by correlating older notes with current notes. Next, the new rewritten notes will be connected with a compatible graphic. For example, if you have major concepts, with accompanying details, reformat notes into a compatible graphic, such as a concept map. If steps, series, phases, cycles or timelines are within the notes, use a flow chart graphic.

GC414-S3 – Notetaking Maintenance Repair Skills – In a three-step process, Alexa or Instructor will direct students, individually, with a partner or small group, to correlate older notes with current notes. Notes will be rewritten by making three columns. The columns are labeled topic, key points and details with examples. Next, students will review the notes by starring concepts, circling terms, underlining key concepts and crossing out unnecessary details. Last, students will use a stack of index cards to create a quiz question on front of each card, and insert the response on the back.
