Did you use the websites provided to you for this activity? Did they help? Explain.

Yes I did and they helped a lot with things we didn’t review in class. Because we didn’t review that in class it would be pretty hard to know the answer to that if I had no memory or past knowledge about it.

How do you think you can use your Cornell notes in the future?

I think they are pretty useful for stuff like study guides and stuff. But I don’t see myself using one in the future for tests and stuff.
