If you decide to enroll, you will have access to a variety of practical worksheets (in PDF format) you can print and use to record new information as you read.  You will also be able to request any of these worksheets in a Microsoft Word format - in case you want to re-configure the tables to match your personal preferences.
 

Linear Format

Purpose:

This format will you record your notes on the left side of the table, and include any facts or details on the right side.  The categories (on the right side) can be changed based your Reading Goal.


Global Format

Purpose:

This format will help you record your information in a less formal manner - but still provide the type of structure necessary to keep you focused while reading.  Because global thinkers like to consider the "big picture", the "Critical" section of each table will help you record your thoughts and opinions (for a broader perspective on the material).


Q & A Format

Purpose:

This format will help any type of thinker.  As stated in Section 4.2, developing questions during the survey process supercharges the brain - and will encourage you to "search for information" instead of reading on auto-pilot.


Summary Format

Purpose:

This format will help both thinking types, but global thinkers tend to like it more (due to the minimal structure).  This format is also beneficial when reading highly complex material.  By writing a short mini-summary after reading each Main Point, you will re-structure the writer's words into your own - thus improving your comprehension and retention.  This process also makes it easier to review the material later on.


Block Format

Purpose:

This format is a classic.  It is ideal for scientific and chronological information since you are not limited by space.  However, it can be too easy to use.  As a result, you may not feel the need to condense your information into smaller tables.  Remember, the act of condensing (or re-structuring) significantly improves your comprehension and retention.


Pyramid Format

Purpose:

This format provides a clear visual representation of all your information. It does require you to re-structure the information (to fit within the tight confines of the tables); but, it serves as an excellent reference chart to keep you on track when facilitating meetings or giving instructions.
