Another thread got me to thinking about using index cards for notes or to drill before a test. That thread mentioned studyshack.com where there are stacks made by users for different subjects. For some reason, I've never gotten the hang of using them.
Do you make your own as you are reading the text? I'm used to note taking in lecture, but I have a class where the lecture isn't really conducive to that. I feel like I don't really know what to study in regards to the information in the chapter.
I just wonder, if you are an index card user, what your system is for making and or using them? Is there an advantage compared to just going over the notes? TIA
Best, L.
