• Main Two Functions

    • ① As an external storage for Memory, for later reference
      • Working memory has its limits
      • Represent logical structure with arrows
      • To recall memories from that time
      • Preserve information not found in external sources (textbooks, etc.)
      • Information to be preserved in notes: Ideal knowledge intersecting with knowledge not found in textbooks
    • ② Learning through abstraction and paraphrasing during the writing process
      • It is good because it allows for reinterpretation within oneself
        • Tweeting is a similar process
      • Does translation automatically do this?
        • (nishio) In this example, when I wrote “実践” in Japanese and translated it, it became “practice,” which could also be interpreted as “exercise” /intellitech-en/practice

  • I thought this Scrapbox also has the main two functions mentioned above.

    • ①: As storage
      • Basically, it does not include things that can be found by searching on Google, or if it does, it is quoted or copied.
    • ②: A place for thinking
  • Linear/Non-Linear Notes

    • Linear (organized) Note
    • Non-Linear (not organized, like a Mind Map)
      • Seven Golden Rules
    • The combination is [[ HyNote: Integrated Concept Mapping and Notetaking]]

  • Thoughts on taking tablet notes on an iPad
    • Pros

      • Easy to reference past content
        • For example, take notes on math and refer back to them immediately
      • Select and move
      • Paperless, easy to organize
    • Cons

      • Apple Pencil is not as easy to write with as actual paper
        • The balance of the pen is subtle/no grip
        • The darkness is either 0 or 100, which narrows the range of expression and decreases the legibility of the text (specific to crayon without pressure detection?)
    • Then?

      • The iPad is suitable for ① when writing carefully
        • In that case, wouldn’t typing be even more suitable?
          • It is difficult to freely arrange things.
      • Handwriting is suitable for ② when you want to write things roughly.
    • The current way of taking tablet notes feels similar to Kyodai-style card#知的生産の技術

      • Divide knowledge into blocks and place them on the surface of the note
      • Although there are no frames, it is essentially like cards
        • You can move them freely.
      • Difficult problems are also saved as blocks (essentially cards).

  • Note-taking methods for IB (Hist, Phys, Chem)

    • Step 1: Take rough notes on paper during class
      • Specialized for purpose ②
      • Do not worry about making it neat
      • Avoid mindless copying and engage the brain while writing
    • Step 2: Summarize the points of learning after returning home
      • Specialized for purpose ①
      • Change the way of summarizing depending on the subject
        • For Physics/Chemistry, which have many difficult concepts, use iPad notes that are linked to your own memory when you wrote them
          • Because you write calmly, editing is easier on the iPad
        • For history, writing everything is too voluminous, so make notes of the main points in the textbook
  • /masui/私の情報整理術

    • An example of organizing everything in one place
  • #知的生産の技術

    • The gridlines are originally derived from English, so it’s difficult to write kanji with that level of detail
    • Use Kyodai-style card instead of notes
