TAKING NOTES
#1
Must be high quality, organized and coherent to be effective. Can be hard to decide what is worth it to take notes on and may end up spending valuable time on irrelevant notes.
REREADING
#2
Economical for time but compared to other techniques might not be effective. If it is a boring or slow topic, can be hard to stay engaged in the material.
HIGH-
LIGHTING
#3
Very popular! Similar to taking notes, quality is key. Must be able to decide what is important to highlight.

Retrieving stuff from your brain and making connections.

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF YOUR STUDY SESSION IS EQUAL TO THE AMOUNT OF COGNITIVE POWER YOU PUT INTO IT
