Taking effective notes for and from online lectures can feel different than taking notes during in-person lectures. We’ve compiled some resources to help you get used to this new format.
Students registered with PMC can request support from a Learning Strategist for individualized support by contacting us by email at mess@cunet.carleton.ca . Alternatively, please request a referral through your PMC Coordinator.
