I have a minor in History, a subject that requires a lot of note taking as reading texts and lectures are the basis. I found a note taking technique that worked for me and I want to help others find one as well.

Learners will assigned homework through the classroom page. That homework will cover different note taking types, reading and watching a lecture video.
