Active Learning: Cornell Notes

The video discusses the drawbacks of linear note taking and introduces the Cornell method as a more effective alternative. The Cornell method organizes notes into sections for better understanding and active engagement. It involves creating a notes column, a cues column for questions and links, and a summary section. This method enhances learning by promoting active listening and summarizing, which aids in understanding and recall. Research supports its effectiveness, showing improved performance over traditional note taking.
