Two-column Note Taking

Study skills are a part of Loma Linda Academy's Expected School-wide Learning Results (ESLRs).

 Students practiced a form of the Cornell Method of Note Taking. Each page is divided into two columns. The lefthand column equals one-third of the width of the page and the righthand column equals two-thirds of the width of the page. Initial notes are taken in the right column. Later, students use the lefthand column to analyze or annotate the notes previously taken.
