Terry is a right-brain dominant thinker. He is in a study group with people who prefer to use the Cornell System of Note Taking. He finds this note-taking system challenging and has adapted his note taking system toward his more visual learning style. He uses a combination of informal outlining key topics and supporting points with a mind map to link and summarize the material. When he gets together with his study group, they tend to go through the Cornell system step by step to compare notes. He has difficulty in following along with this style of note-taking and feels he is not gaining much from attending the group sessions. Based on this chapter, what advice would you give to Terry to help him optimize his learning?
