1. When taking notes it is helpful to

• a. Write every single word

• a. Chunk information

• a. Write nothing because you’ll remember it

When taking notes, the first step is to write the important information, and the next step would be to

• Process the notes and revise

• Add questions

• Review the notes

When taking notes, why do we write questions in the left margin?

• To waste time

• Predict questions teachers will ask

• Prove that you understand the content

• Make connections and deepen content knowledge

What might a question mark signify when processing the notes?

• Something you’d like to research further

• Something you are excited about

• Something you are confused about

• Something you think is important

The final step of focused note taking is to

• Apply your learning

• Write a summary of the notes

• Process your notes

The first step of the tutorial process is

• Identify an initial question

• Give your 60 second speech

• Give your 60 second speech

• Tutoring’s Really Fun

• Tutorial Request Form

• Tutorials Required Form

The tutorials process is broken into 3 parts. What are those three parts?

• Before Tutorials, During Tutorial, After Tutorials

• Tutor, Student, Teacher

• Content Class, AVID class, Personal

• TRF, Tutorials, Reflection

During tutorials, the student’s first task is the 60 second speech. The 60 second speech is

• A time for the student to tell the tutor about their week

• An introduction time

• Time to go over their TRF for the group

• Time to teach the group about the topic

Why do tutorials happen in groups?

• So students can get the answers from their peers

• So students aren’t bored

• So less tutors are required

• So students can enhance their understanding too
