Hi, all!
All my life I've been chastised/ridiculed because I don't take notes in classes. I noted a long time ago that if I try to take notes, while i'm writing, I don't seem to "hear" anything the lecturer/instructor is saying. Maybe it's cause i'm male. lol.
Anyhow, a few years back (I'm 30, so i was probably 26 or 27), I started just using MIND MAPS in classes, drawing the relationships between ideas as the lecturer is talking, and I seem to have a better grasp on the material as I'm getting it on paper at the same time.
Now, people look at my notes and laugh because they think i'm doodling or something. but it's all good. it works.
Just spreading the news.
