How to draw in the synopsis, and why it is needed

It turns out, not necessarily to take notes only words. You can use and pictures. If the student remembers what was discussed in class, and drawings in a notebook just to help him tell a new material, hence they convey the desired information. When combined with the words pattern memory material efficiency is greatly increased.

Many children on the lessons in notebooks not only write, but also to draw. What to the outsider looks like abstraction or a collection of bizarre shapes, for a child can be a great help in remembering the material. It's hard to explain (especially if you are a small, but above you hangs teacher), but easy to check.

If the student remembers what was discussed in class, and izrisoval field only help him tell the new material, it means that these scribbles convey the desired information.

Figures are effective not only for children. Try to apply the sketches on the conferences, meetings, group discussions. Combine the words and visual notes to organize and write down what your colleagues say. This will make an event tangible, visible for every attendee. These notes help colleagues to remain focused, continue to move forward, to improve their ideas.

Simple words and pictures help us to more clearly see the relationship between the obtained snippets of information.

Perhaps we should teach their children (and themselves too) do not record new information and sketch it?

Students are wrong notes

When students tell how to take notes, the emphasis is on the other person's ability to then look in notebook and understand what was written. But this approach is not really true. Firstly, it is practically impossible to quickly and accurately take notes so that they are understood by an outsider. Secondly, this is not the best way to understand and remember new information.

The most important function of the abstract - to help the student to remember that what is stated in the lecture. It is logical that students and pupils should be allowed to write notes as they are comfortable, and so that is written to make sense of the author.

No matter what the teacher is thinking: if the student is able to play the new material, using as a guide only own synopsis, it is well conducts recording.

Some people are well versed in what to write for yourself, but do not necessarily lead notes only words. Drawings and abstract composition - the mapping of the brain that is trying to connect the new pieces of information into one inseparable web. When you look at a synopsis you can easily remember why the information blocks arranged just so, what was the reason for such a decision.

Science-taking

There are many studies on how it should be conducted and how the abstract visual language affects our notes. Some of them may surprise unexpected results.

For example, one of the worksPam A. Mueller, Daniel M. Oppenheimer.The Pen Is Mightier Than The Keyboard. Advantages Of Longhand Over Laptop Note Taking. says that handwritten Notes work much better than made on the computer. When an outline is carried out by hand, a person learns best and remembers information. Despite the fact that digital notes usually repeat the teacher said, word for word, it adversely affects the storage of information.

When the student writes an outline of the hand, he attempts to paraphrase a speech, cut and mark it so quickly and effectively capture the information. This helps to re-think and analyze the new material almost immediately.

Another studyJeffrey D. Wammes, Melissa E. Meade, Myra A. Fernandes.The Drawing Effect: Evidence For Reliable And Robust Memory Benefits In Free Recall. It showed that people who quickly create simple drawings, are better able to remember words than people who simply write them in the column or trying to memorize by heart. The quality of the pattern thus has no value. Chetyrohsekundnogo sketch was enough to remember. It is obvious that we should not be Leonardo da VinciTo use the images in the synopsis.

Visual synopsis takes the best of these two studies. Students use a combination of words and pictures fast to process the information they have heard, to take from it only the most important and to capture on paper.

How to take notes with the help of drawings?

• Turn your notebook by 90 degrees: so that the paper orientation was landscape rather than portrait.
• Combine drawing with the words, write down what he heard his own interpretation.
• Place the pieces of information so that, for you, this composition has a meaning.
• Draw simple shapes, do not need high art.
• Your synopsis should be clear to you. Opinion extraneous matters.

You may not work this way to take notes, or notes. But for those who are literally drowning in an array of characters and lines, thus can not remember anything, and suffers from a large amount of information, it may be an option. Figures in the synopsis - a good way to interact with information and the outside world.
