S104 update and playing with mind maps

S104 update

Facebook block is going well, having now extended it out a little bit so facebook is now blocked between 10am and 4pm.  Being a lot more productive.
Have now started Book 2 Earth and Space.  Finished chapter 1 and 2 today, along with a mind map for chapter 2 (chapter 1 was just an intro).  Also started doing the definitions for Book 2 on quizlet.  I did start out doing the post it notes with notes on for doing a similar note setup as my last chapter notes (chapter 8 book 1), but they seemed very unwieldly so decided to go back to doing mind maps again : - copy attached, I suspect you will need to click it to see the larger version....


Reasonably pleased with it as it looks a lot easier to review then just standard notes, so will try mind maps for now - I am still basing the mind map around the SQ3R method as you can see from the chapter headings being the first arcs in the 'tree'.

Taken another couple of days reading of the rain gauges - not as much rain in them as last week.

Would love to hear about your study techniques, e.g. to you do mind maps, notes, SQ3R - or some other technique I haven't heard of yet  - always on the look out to improve......
