Summarizing & Note Taking I

Making Thinking Visible

We can maximize our chances of making difficult content sticky if we broaden our definition of note taking.

Summarizing & Note Taking is one of Robert Marzano's high yield instructional strategies, with benefits for students of all ages and for all kinds of content (I like to say "from Kindergarten to Calculus").

Learn about this and more as you listen to the Voice Thread we created for West Clermont's February 26 Professional Learning Day to align with the Ohio Improvement Process and our school improvement plans.

With thanks to Superintendent Gary Brooks for the introduction and to education consultant Peter Pappas for adding comments to the Voice Thread. Pappas will be working with teachers and administrators in September 2010.
