notes like they normally wouldstudents may use
any style of note-taking for example, outline
format, narrative format, symbols, short-hand,
etc.

  • Students then compare notes with a partner after
    class
  • Students talk about what they wrote and whyeach
    student looks for gaps and any missed information
  • Both partners should add to their notes, if
    necessary

10
With their partner(s), students create questions
in the Left-hand column These questions should
elicit critical-thinking skills (Higher-level
Bloom and Costas questioning)

Questions should reflect
  • Information the student doesnt understand
  • or wants to discuss with teacher/tutor
  • Information students think would be
  • good on an essay test
  • Gaps in the notes
