Note-taking

One of the skills students will need is to identify key pieces of information and be able to save the information in a quickly accessible format. Traditionally this involves reading text and rewriting or summarizing the information. Unfortunately for students that struggle with writing, the struggle is exacerbated when we make a reading skill reliant on a writing skill.

Instead of disconnecting the read information from the notes, we can now keep the original information, but mark it up with notes on top of it.

Consider: Highlighting text making margin notes drawing diagrams recording voice annotations.
