We asked our community of Shifting Schools newsletter subscribers to vote on this week's topic and they voted for a conversation on note-taking strategies. (By the way did you know you can also sign up for our free newsletter at www.shiftingschools.com?) Jeff and Tricia were so excited to discuss their nine favorite strategies in this week's episode: 1. Demystify the process: make space for learners to share what note-taking strategies they’ve developed by inviting students to so short share-outs or small group presentations.   2. Collaborative note-taking: invite groups or the entire class to collaborate on taking notes   3. Save the last word for me from Facing History: remember that you can use conversation as the catalyst for notes   4. Social silent reading: this might be Jeff's favorite--it is powerful for learners of all ages   5. Use protocols like those found in our free guide.    6. Use Jamboard-specifically our 'might mights' framework to gather questions. You can find that guide here.   7. Leverage annotation mentor texts using Genius.com   8. Invite students to record a video tour of their notes to be shared with others   9. Leverage ChatGPT to ask for a template and in small teams make improvements Also as discussed if you are registering for NCCE use our special promo code for a discount: shiftingschools50 Want to take 25 dollars off any of our Shifting Schools offers?
