REMEMBER AESTHETIC DOES NOT EQUAL EFFECTIVE STUDYING

To make it easier to take notes, I recommend having one notebook for class that has all of your quickly written notes for when your teacher turns into Eminem, and then a second one where you rewrite the notes in an aesthetically pleasing way. This way you don't waste time trying to make them pretty and miss info, but can still have easy to understand notes

STUDY TIP: ✨Have you guys noticed that you study better when you’re not at home or school? I was waiting in the lounge at a Toyota store and I finished a homework assignment and I can remember all the research I did for the assignment! When I want to remember the information i think about sitting on this particular chair in this room. Turns out that our brain associates certain information with the place where you learned it and makes a subtle connection. When you need to remember something, just think of the place and what you were feeling when you remembered studying it and the answer will come too you. That’s why listening to different music and changing your study environment each time will help with memory recall. Lofi music with a memorable and detailed picture is even better (in my opinion)

Summary for myself:
1. Titles, make them stand out by writing in capital letters and/or writing in colorful markers.
2. Stationary swaps, master your note-taking methods first. Supplies doesn't help you organize your notes, only YOU do. Get a pen that's comfortable to write.
3. Formatting, leave white spaces in between writings whenever you see fit. Fold your paper vertically in half, you'll save some space. Dot bullet points are more pleasing to look at (imo). If the bullet point is VERY long, line the 2nd line with the bullet point so it looks more neat.
4. Visual aids, you don't need to go all out and make it a masterpiece. Decorate it with stickers, print out pictures to stick it in your notes/a seperate notebook (don't use too much glue, it'll destroy the paper).
