powerpoint notes and anticipating text questions


How time flies! It is already week 10 of this semester, so that is mean we are facing new round of exam. This week the strategies I used was help to my text of IST195. They are PPT notes and anticipating text questions.

For PPT notes, firstly I print the slides using the handout option with 3 slides on a page. So I got the slides on the left side and on the rights side it was used for writing. Then, I summarize the important point of each slide and write it down on the right side. Foe the term needs to remember I just highlight it. Because I am a visual learner so I try my best let my noted looks like interesting.

To use this strategy I review the lecture in a over-all view, and I also add some information of the knowledge the professor mentioned before. Because our text is based on the lecture so in this way I guess I wilL not lose any point of the exam.
The other strategy I used this week is anticipating text question, after I review the course I made some questions based on the lecture, and the way I did this is created fill in blank question, after that on the other side of the paper I wrote down the answer. I have to say this strategy is suit me well because during the process of created and answer the question I already review the key point for two times. Furth more the neat organization of created exam question in this way give me a positive attitude to solve the question and this is also very convenient way to review the knowledge anywhere.
