During class

One approach that has been proven effective is called the Cornell note-talking system. Here are some of its method. Start by using the main section of your page to take down your notes during class. Be sure to leave space on the left side of the page and the bottom. Things to keep in mind:

1.               Get the speaker’s main points. Don’t write down word you hear.

2.              Leave blanks in your notes to add explanations later.

3.             Organize as you write. Pay attention to cues such as repetition and emphasis

4.             Indicate main and supporting points as you go

5.             Jot down key vocabulary important facts and formulas

6.             Ask question. If you’re confused, it’s better to ask while the material is fresh in your mind.

Part 3

Challenging aspects of distance education

. Lack of in-person interaction: some educators argue that both teacher-student and student-student contact are essential to learning . in a distance-learning classroom, you may be able to participate in class discussions online in chat rooms, message boards or web conferences—but it’s not the same as being with other students in a classroom.

. Different levels of quality: many distance-education programs supply an excellent learning experience, but others may not.

Research any program before signing on to make sure it’s rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.

. The need to self-start: distance education lets you make your own schedules. If you have hard time getting motivated, this might not be the ideal educational setting for you.
