Recently the Electrical Training ALLIANCE designed a Student Notebook for use in the classroom, labs, and homework. It is available in our warehouse.
WHAT RESEARCH HAS TOLD US … even in an online environment, hand written notes are better. The combination of online questions, interactions, simulators, and videos combined with taking handwritten notes is a perfect partnership. *Again, current research from Princeton University & UCLA states that students retain more when they write their own notes…this deals with how the brain enters the information. Most people type faster than they write, so the slowing down of note taking with handwritten notes is one of the advantages. Another is trying to use technology to draw—often we are distracted from the learning.
FEATURES: The notebook is intended to be used for an entire year. Each year the apprentice should receive a new notebook dedicated to that particular year. Students should use the notebook at home during their study time…this allows for showing work with math problems as required by their instructors, draw diagrams in their own style, recorded notes, and even listed questions they would like to ask the next time they attend class. In the classroom, the notebook can be used to document notes from the instructor presentations, use it to take pop quizzes, scratch pad…the uses are endless. Also, it can be used when in the labs for data results and procedures. As you can see from the image, there is not a notebook on the market that contains all the features for the cost…and that is printed union. We feel if certainly will be a good tool for the apprentice.
