What if I told you that you don't have to take notes on everything? In this video, I will explain all about the new era student pyramid and how this mindset can significantly help you with notetaking.
⏱ TIMESTAMPS:
00:00 - The Mistake 99% Of Beginner Students Make
00:31 - The New Era Student Pyramid
01:23 - 1. Notes Are Pieces Of Understanding Rather Than Pieces Of Truth
03:02 - 2. Create Concept Notes Over Document Notes
04:04 - 3. Notetaking Allows You To Clarify Your Thinking
04:50 - 4. Notetaking Allows You To Compound Your Thinking
05:54 - 5. You Don't Have To Take Notes On Everything
The pyramid shown in the video is from Bianca Pereira's Build Your Knowledge Portfolio Course, a course that teaches students how to build a knowledge portfolio, a collection of works--books, blog posts, academic articles, videos, etc.--that how you have the knowledge and expertise you claim you have. I highly recommend you check out her course as it has been one of the most influential in my own thinking toward PKM!
