This past week I combine two of the learning strategies introduced to us in class/ the reading. The two I combined are the jeopardy style note-taking and the 20 minute test prep strategies. I then applied these two strategies in two of my classes. The two classes I chose for the week were this (CLS) class and my transmedia colloquium. Even though we do not have exams in this class I thought it would be useful anyway because I would make sure I understood the material presented in class and not just blindly take notes. So during both these classes I folded my notebook paper in half; on the left side I took down the notes during class, and on the right side I created a series of questions corresponding to the notes previously taken on the right. After I had completed writing my questions, I quizzed myself using the the jeopardy style notes. In total this took me around exactly 20 minutes per class.
These are my notes from my CLS class (Wed.)
And from my Colloquium (Tues.)
*I did not initially implement the jeopardy notes in my tuesday colloquium but I went back and re-wrote them in this style and then went through and did the twenty minute test prep. So I guess on the whole my colloquium took over twenty minutes of time after class, but the studying/ question making portion took about only twenty minutes.*
