“Note-taking raises similar concerns. Does the student have an effective method: Is the notebook page spare, maybe peppered with disconnected bits of information, or is the page an overwhelming blast of script as the student tries feverishly to write down everything the instructor says? Laptops and tablet computers provide some technical enhancements for note-takers, but students still have to determine what matters, what’s subordinate, what topics go together.” — Mike Rose, “The Missing Element in Student Success.” Inside Higher Ed, September 7, 2012
