Definition
A structured approach to note-taking, which divides the page into three sections:
- Left-hand column
- Narrow.
- Contains keywords.
- Right-hand column
- Covers the bult of the page's width.
- Contains definitions for each of the keywords.
- Bottom section
- Full width of the page
- Usually contains a summary section with important takeways, or just a narrative pulling it all together.
Notes
- Benefit: you can easily scan the left-hand column for the important stuff.
- Alternative use: recording the events of some time-period, using the left-hand column for dates and/or times.
- Lower section can be used in other ways:
- Questions
- Actions
- Follow-up questions
- Points of confusion
- Thoughts, observations and insights.
- I've codified this into a Restagraph subschema.
