- Reviewed the listening test.
- Many of you took good notes, but you did not use good logic when you completed the outline or when you identified the causes and effects. To improve, practice writing outlines with a tutor during the lab hour or complete the logic section of More Reading Power.
- If you are struggling to take notes, pay special attention in class to the listening and note-taking strategies in the book. Practice these strategies with extra listenings during the lab hour.
- If you are struggling to understand the lecture, be sure you do the intensive listening homework. Also, listen to the lectures several times. The first few times, pause in between sentences. Pause enough times that you can understand the main idea and some details. Then play the recording with fewer and fewer pauses.
