Using other people's study notes to learn (1 Viewer)

[brendanr]

Hi everyone,
just started year 11. I am interested in using other people's study notes for the HSC to teach myself some of the content.

Any strategies for using them? I am thinking of using the idea of putting them on cards and trying to recall the information.

I guess, I put on the same question a month ago. The answer is:
You can use other people's notes for extra help however it is extremely beneficial if you make your own by using syllabus or just putting useful information in your book. Remember try to make your notes as detailed as possible and if you really want to use other peoples notes, then there is no stopping you, but,i repeat, still try to make your own notes...

Cheers

^ Yes I agree, you should really make your own notes

If you want to teach yourself the content, you're really best using your textbook for that. Other people's notes may have gaps in them or may not explain it as clearly to you, though they might think it's perfectly clear.
