Please describe the study strategies that you intend to use for your IDC mid-term. (For example, do you plan to annotate your notes, set up a study schedule, etc.) Please be specific. Then explain why you think that these particular strategies will work best for you.
There are several strategies that I am planning to implement to make my grade higher. The first thing I want to do is make a schedule. I want to be sure that everything gets studied, and that nothing is left out. I also want to be sure, scheduling that I don't overload. I need to find a healthy balence of 2-3 hours a day to devote completely to studying.
As for the actual studying goes, I've found in the past that typing my notes and saying them out loud as I type them helps me greatly. Another thing I can do, is to reword the answer. It sounds sort of funny, but the more ways I find to say a particular fact or idea, the more times it is imprinted in my brain. Also, for major people or other key ideas I will make flashcards to help me review. I will make sure to include time to make flashcards when I plan my schedule.
These are things I can do to help me study for my Ideas and Culture exam.

I understand why it helps to re-type your notes. Neuroscience researchers have proven that your strategy is a good one. The more times you process the information, the more ways you connect it to what already know and the more likely it is that you will remember it. Good luck on Friday's mid-term!
