Class notes

 Now that classes are done and my time in the master's program as a student has come to an end, I am wondering the best way to organize all of my class notes.  I have an entire box of them.  They are not all in order of the class I took them in, but they are somewhat already organized. When I was working on my capstone presentation, my entire den was covered in different piles of notes from all of my classes.  I am sad to say that once I was done, I just stuffed them all into a box without thinking ahead.  I will excuse myself of that because to be honest, I was pretty stressed out and tired of looking at them LOL

When I updated my resume this week, I added some of the classes that I took in school, and I realized that I need to be able to access those notes for later purposes. It's not as if I cannot talk about these subjects without the notes, but they do come in handy.  And when I was doing my capstone, I would often come across something that I had totally forgotten about that was so useful.  Also, going back and reviewing my notes from class may spark an interest in an area that I had not thought about steering my gerontology career.  You just never know.

So, it is time to start going through my box of notes.  I will reread them and get them better organized.  I think I will keep a highlighter and a pen and pad close by to make better notes on the ones I already have.  Maybe I will get some notebooks to put them in.  One day, they'll be someone else's trash but for the time being, having my notes organized is going to be so beneficial to me.
