ノートの取り方: 授業のコンセプトマップ形式でノートの取り方を練習する

Through the use of education TEDEd videos and learner friendly articles, this class will focus on the practical application of note-taking using the Concept Mapping note-taking method. Learners will take notes alongside their teacher and peers. Following each note taking session, everyone will compare their notes to learn and ensure that the important information was captured.

The class will be structured as follows (with room for more discussion as needed):
Ten to fifteen-minute discussion on how to take notes using abbreviations, symbols, and short phrases, what to take notes on, and tips on how to keep up a quick pace
A five to ten-minute educational article reading during which learners and the teacher will take notes
Five-minute discussion and comparison of notes with peers and teacher
A three to five-minute educational TED-Ed video during which learners and teacher will take notes
Five-minute discussion and comparison of notes with peers and the teacher
Five-minute wrap up and/or discussion as time allows

** There is a quick tips review in class but we will not focus on how to abbreviate, use Google docs to take notes, slow videos, provide outlines of content, etc. Some of this content will naturally arise in the session and be discussed but the majority will be learned by practical application and examples from peers and instructors. The goal of this class is to practice the style and compare with others to help students be equipped to walk into a live, real-time session and take notes effectively with no preparation beyond a notebook and pen. 

All videos and articles will be screen shared on the teacher's screen. No links will be clicked by learners, no external sites will be accessed, nor are account logins needed.
