MISS GIRL SHOWED UP TO MY MATH TRIAL WITH HER NEAT ASS NOTES WITH HIGHLIGHTED TRIANGLES AND TRIG GRAPHS LOOKING LIKE SOME ARTIST DREW THEM and I've never felt like shit more in my life
People making notes for math makes no sense to me.
Does no one store information in their brains anymore?

I agree. Making some for maybe proofs or something might be useful rarely here and there, but it takes away from the component of critical thinking and rather strictly forces students to just do questions linearly- i.e. expect them to be exactly the same in method. whilst this may work for people in the hsc who work endlessly day and night, its realistically not rlly efficient at all. Just listen in closely in ur classses and facilitate that knowledge by going through some questions.

yeah learning maths methodically isn't very effective imo. like its still possible to do well, but if u have good critical thinking skills it takes way less time to learn stuff, you get much better at answering unfamiliar questions and just in general you get good at doing hard qs.

thats valid for egtting obsessed with thinga when u find them (lowkey probably undiagnosed autism gang !!)but actually using threads like this in the middle of trials makes it easy to waste tons of time so its not rlly ideal lmao save it for afterwards
