Read and watch and exchange notes/summaries!
Everyone is busy so to enhance your learning and to save time, while reading & watching, each student takes notes on at least one piece of reading or one video or part of a video to shares with your peers.

  • These notes can be in any format (mindmap, bulleted points, running text, as question, pictures), formal, informal, handwritten to give some examples. Take the notes for yourself!
  • Summarize and add notes to what you agree with and what you might not agree with and why.
  • Your peers can use them or not; this is up to each individual.
  •  If/when you read your peers' notes, it'd be nice of you to leave a thank-you comment.

NB! You still need to look at all the materials, but these notes will enhance the learning and save time. In addition, it will also help us to start building a feeling of class community and give everyone a sense of not being alone on the course (Even if this a course where you are allowed to work mainly on your own, which some students prefer, regardless of Covid-19 times.).

Add here (Click LINK): Which reading/video are you posting  notes for? (For the longer videos you can divide up the materials, or we can have more participants summarizing them)

Add your Notes/summary here: Click LINK and read your peers' notes on the same page.

NB! You'll need what you learn from these videos both when crafting your own and when providing peer feedback!

Tip: Compare how pitches start and the advice given on starting a pitch. (We will use a specific pattern, but for now, familiarize yourself with different examples. What attracts your attention the best?)
