ANNOTATE YOUR BOOK!!!

As mentors, we recommend you annotate your books or create your own study guide from your research,  like the one we passed out last week on Luther.


CREATE A STUDY GUIDE!!!

Create topics, like people, famous quotes, dates, places, and fill in as you finish up your study.  It will become invaluable in your reflective studies for the pop quizes and weekly quicky-exams.

Week 3, Semester 1

Anyone take note or recall what the homework study and preparation was for this week?

Note-taking and agenda calendaring are an important part of  our quest of "taking responsibility for your own education."
