**Q/E/C method**

The Q/E/C method is another study method that Cal Newport talks about a lot in his Straight-A book. Q/E/C stands for Question/Evidence/Conclusion, and the main purpose of this system is to structure all your readings into question, evidence, and conclusion formats that you can then compile into one large study guide. In addition to reducing the amount of unnecessary information transcribed in your notes, the Q/E/C system creates a clear and obvious interrelationship between topic, conclusion, and the flow of facts and arguments that connect the two . Furthermore, this note-taking system is two-in-one, as it not only helps you organize information as you read or attend lectures, but also creates valuable study material that you can use during the revision process.

**Morse code method**

The Morse code method is a note-taking method envisioned by Cal Newport that focuses primarily on utilizing written material. Whenever you come across a sentence that seems to express a main idea, draw a dot next to it in the margin; Then when you come across an example or explanation that supports that big idea, you should put a line next to it in the margin. This allows you to absorb information without interrupting your reading momentum, so you can then take notes.

The act of converting the points you have written down into notes is called the processing phase. It basically means paraphrasing the main idea into a bullet point in your own words. The author then encourages you to take all of these sentences and revise them in the form of a key question: [em fundo branco:] “What is the main question posed in the article? What is the conclusion the authors point to?”

**Flow Notes**

Flow notes are very similar to mind maps, but have no rules in structure. Although they are difficult to grade, they allow you to absorb a large amount of information during your lesson, because they are a free pass that allows you to simply throw facts, arguments, topics and dates onto the page, with no specific order, while you connect and link these ideas together. as you hear them. Flow notes are great for those who hate transcribing information and prefer to process what they hear into workable sentences or words; it's a holistic method that works wonders for lessons without clear structure, or for discussions with interconnected components that aren't easily organized through outline or mind map formats. If your classroom is very information-heavy, making it impossible to compress all the facts, you can still use Flow Notes as a hybrid system to comment and annotate original material and textbooks to create summaries or visual aids for complex chapters or topics .

The sentence method is similar to the outline method in that it relies on an expanded view of your notes, but instead of using indentation and topic wording, it uses one-liners, one per paragraph, to create a guide to each topic that is easy to read. , workable and memorable. The other major difference is that while the outline technique uses indentation to hierarchize the importance of different segments of the topic, by avoiding indentation the sentence method considers each sentence of equal value, meaning topics with a high level of detail or information can benefit from this system because it forces you to memorize both details and important ideas related to the subject.
