Applying notes we learned in work shop into Dr.Garcia and Dr.Corkery class only re-applys my knowledge of taking notes. Taking notes come natural to one when reading or learning new information one hasn’t known before. It’s all about your individual thought process where you will decide information you will receive or not. There would be certain times where I’ll be like ” hey read the article first before I read” or ” hey! jot this question down before I read”. Using these strategies always kept me more engaged into the reading. Personally to me, it will keep you active, meaning you will want to be more into what your viewing. This is just some of the ways I applied note taking to my classes.

Taking notes is major key for classes and your academic success. For example, Having a test on Thursday and you have resources to go back to is the greatest thing you can ever imaging! Especially if your professor is chill and laid back.

Questions Before I read!

The reading strategies I use while reading are a selected few. One of the strategies I use is asking questions about the reading such as: “why is this happening ?” , ” What could be the reason this is happening ?”, ” what could’ve led to this? “, etc…  all of these questions help me engage into the reading even more and also helps get me more interactive while reading. Writing notes also helps too, by using notes you get more of an understanding of what your analyzing. Another thing is to visulaize the main points , thus giving the reader a image of what their reading.

I could say visualizing , helps me the most when anaylyzing a reading.  Visualizing the reading helps give me an idea of whats going on, even though it’s not an accurate outlook on the setting or place, its give you an idea of what your reading. Also its another way of viewing televsion, jsut mentally and more creative! Thus giving the reader all the same thrill and excitement.
