I know that not everyone reads the comments on blog posts, but I thought this one worthy of “upgrading” to post status, as it says something I wanted to say but didn’t. And better. Gunner writes, quoting TMC professor Greg Behle:<\/p>\n
I’ve heard you say this before, and have adopted this method myself for a few years now, but it’s always good to hear. How I wish I had taken more extensive notes in college… and in life. I used to try to write down the things I thought were important. But Greg Behle killed any perceived logic behind THAT method when he said (paraphrase):<\/p>\n
“One of the main reasons you’re even IN this class is that you don’t KNOW what’s important and what’s not! If you already knew what was essential and what was peripheral, you shouldn’t have signed up for the class. Rather, write down EVERYTHING, and decide later (once you’re more informed) what’s important and what’s not.”<\/p>\n
I’d rather take extensive notes and later find out that they’re not important than NOT take notes and later realize that they would’ve been pure gold.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
