About this paper
The Cornell method splits a page in three. During class you write notes in the wide column. Afterwards you turn them into questions and keywords in the cue column, then write a two or three sentence summary at the bottom. Covering the notes and answering the cues is a quick self-test.
Printing it right
- In the print dialog, set the scale to 100% or Actual size. Fit to page shrinks the page and the spacing with it.
- Choose the same paper size in the print dialog as on this page, A4 or US Letter.
- Turn off headers and footers in the print dialog if your browser adds a date or web address.
- The PDF keeps every line as a vector, so it stays sharp at any zoom and prints the same on any printer.
