Tip for writing notes: when writing think that these notes is someone else’s paper you are writing on. It helps me think “if someone else is reading this. They should understand what happened”
🤯🤯🤯
I usually do stuff (not only take notes lol) thinking of my future self. Like, “oh, I hate doing this assignment, but my future self is going to appreciate having a free weekend”. It helps me get shit done, and it makes me appreciate myself more.
:0
Thank you!
I'm actually the opposite, all my notes are very condensed and I take a lot of 'shortcuts' when I'm writing them down, to the point where my friends always have to ask me what it means. But I understand it and since all the information is in the shortest form possible, it's easier for me to remember.
Rawan Awkal i do that too lmfao
Hey - My Information Systems professor just played this video in class. I thought that would be cool to let you know.
she needs to see this :D
High school student here, just asking, what is information systems?
@@PxstelMorgxn I.T stuff
That is actually so dope
That's so cool!
Printing out the pictures she took in class is next level since almost everyone never looks at that picture ever again 😂 Talk about elite note taking
Also very stupid
In my science classes, I would take pics of the example slides, then put the picture in my notes & write down how to do them right under the pic. Super helpful.
Nick Yi I do the same. Just do it right after class so you remember
Bruh i used to do this back in senior high. I was too lazy to write them down. Such a waste of ink and paper tho
The only problem now is: where do I find money to buy an iPad pro + pencil?
Edoardo Vitella A 6th generation (or 2018) ipad is a cheaper alternative to the ipad pro. Of course, it’s not as advanced as the ipad pro but you get most of the good features. Also, you can look into buying a used ipad/pencil to save money.
I found the 2nd newest iPad Pro for $599 usd but, the older ones work the same!
@@BasmaWhyou don't need the pro just for note taking, it's too expensive... they sell the iPad 2018 for 250 in staples!
Also, apple gives small discounts for students
I think the new iPad 2019 is affordable with a stylus not the apple pencil 😅
I just bought an iPad 10.2 inch with an apple pen for $580 CAD. That's with the student discount thought, but also the apple store has "refurbished" ipads that are cheaper. I don't think the pro gives an extreme advantage over just the normal iPad
*Uses an iPad / laptop for notes*
My high school: yOuR eLeCtRoNiCs ShOuLd Be OfF aNd AwAy In YoUr LoCkEr
Me: Well back to the papers
Madi is tumbling well you always have college LMAO
So TRUE! IDK which institutes allow THIS?! 😂
Not to mention school/college lockers are not THE BEST lockers xp
Hey! In our college too! Like the hell do we always need papers?!
this is def about taking notes in US universities.
Caitlin: "Go paperless with notetaking, it saves paper and ink"
Also Caitlin: *Buys all the notebooks and pens*
I'm the same so I support you no matter what.
PinkKittyMusic literally me 😂😂😂
I am obsessed with all things stationary. I still buy pens and note books :|
i’m a stationary addict. i can’t not have at least one journal to write in with all of my stationary supplies. 😂
I mean school uses so much more paper
@@SA-uj2gx I KNOW RIGHT!!!!! My school only prints single-sided paper (tech issue, plah), and sometimes when it comes to SAT mock exams, mother of ga that takes A LOT
I voice record the teachers that talk fast and when I get home I put the lecture in notes form
thats tough
same
How does that sound yeah yeah harder harder please don’t stop
x y ok
My Uni has a policy against that because it’s apparently copyright infringement or something. Wild.
Caitlin: Doesnt have to pinterest worthy notes
5mins later: Shows us an example of pinterest worthy notes
*no hate*
"Professors that talk really fast"
My econs lecturer was a beast, 1.5hr class and she finishes it in 30 mins
basically, I could barely take down any notes during her class
I had a lecturer for my Spectroscopy module (Chem degree) who, the first lecture we had with her, showed us the feedback she'd received from the two previous years. At the end of the semester, students have to submit anonymous feedback for lecturers and their teaching. She got a top score for the content, but a really low score for lecture flow. She showed us on the slide that most of her feedback was "moves on too fast, can't take notes quick enough and gain an understand the material at the same time". I thought she was going to say "I'm taking this on board and slowing down a bit for this module". No, she showed us all this and then said "well, this is MY lecture, so if you can't keep up, tough". So basically, HUNDREDS of students over MANY years have told her that she goes WAY too fast, and doesn't explain or answer questions (this is compared to all other lecturers they've had for the semester) and she thought that the problem wasn't with her, it was with the other hundreds of people. Needless to say, her module was consistently the one people had their lowest mark on.
dam. my teachers all ask if we’re done and if we ain’t they wait a minute or two and ask until the majority answer is yes. if it takes too long they just move on and put the powerpoint on google classroom
I started writing in cursive in college just so I could take notes faster. And they say cursive isn’t useful anymore
@@EyeconicLaura omg this! Yep at one point I went back to my blue ink fountain pen (French school TM) just because it glides over the paper so much faster. The price is horribly inky hands though
BEAST LMAO
I'm going to buy an ipad Pro.
But first
lemme ask my dad
Go for a Surface Pro 6 instead. Way better!
@@TheRadLion really? What's the difference? I don't know very much about these things :D
@@skylathomson2909 suface go 6 is a full fledged computer since it has Windows 10. If you already have a laptop you can use the Surface Go (different product) as a second display and a digital note-taking device on the go. If you want additional information on the Surface Go 6,you can watch Dave 2D's review on it.
@@pissdrinkeradvocate whaaat thats awesome. I will definitely think about it. Thank uu
The Lion no its not, I had it and it was absolute garbage, the ipad is definitely better. I need to sell my surface lol
OMG WHAT THE HECK?? I've been LOVING Goodnotes but I totally switched to OneNote just because it makes me able to see all my stuff on all my devices.. and only through your video did I realize, that I could just EXPORT my pages to OneNote once I finish them??!?!?
Where was my brain the last 1 year??
Thank you so much for this video!! I really loved it haha💞
I just traded in my older iPad Air in to get some credit to go towards the newest iPad Air/Pencil so I could go digital this semester. Best. Investment. Ever. I wish I had done this sooner!
Oh smart ! Yeah it’s a game changer 🙈😍
Me too but this semester I did not take any notes digitally, only for revision... and I wish I would have worked more with my ipad because it really is amazing!!!
I'm also doing the same!! I'm selling my old iPad air to buy a newer one with apple pencil support. Let's see how do I do becoming paperless this semester! I'm really excited about it!!
How much trade in value for an iPad Air 2 128 gigs?
@@prez2451 if you go to the website www.apple.com/shop/trade-in and scroll down a little bit to where it says "Select your device to get a trade-in estimate" it'll tell you exactly how much you'll get back. You just have to answer a couple basic questions regarding the condition it is in and the serial number of the iPad. I can already tell you it's not going to be much. I think I got back $120ish to go towards buying the newer iPad Air and an apple pencil, but every little bit counts! Hope this helps!
An Additional tip I didn't see you mention is you can also "print" your teachers handouts/readings/powerpoints into onenote. I definitely have done that on more than one occasion to take notes on the side of it
Pls how do you do it
@@leonorawilliams9440 In your print screen, where you chose which printer you want to use, chose "OneNote2016" is may be different on your system but that'e the general idea of how to print handouts into one note
@@leonorawilliams9440 Another way to do it is ti make sure the file is in pdf form, and then just drag the file into onenote, and you can select yes to the "Insert this pdf" message that pops up
I think this a great feature. I just never use it cuz I don’t like how they insert it as images and make every slide super huge
This video is RIGHT ON TIME! I purchased a 2019 iPad Air last week for school because I am UTTERLY SICK AND TIRED of purchasing paper, pens, textbooks, etc. and having to lug it around year after year! I’ve been binging on digital note videos!!
Also, I was able to score a SWEET DEAL on a 10.5 Smart Keyboard in case anyone is in the market. I purchased this bad boy for $47.50 today at Target!!! That’s 70% off! I live in the New England area. Hope everyone has a great and productive school year!!
Oh wow! Perfect timing indeed (and a fabulous deal)!! Good luck with your digital note taking journey 🥰
Love how your profile picture has the right expression :D
Kiyoncé Kartier ENGLAND?!
BRUH OKAY-
AlishaAnimations * theres no deals like that anywhere, i live in england lmao
@@alishaanimations3058 New England lol
i've used my ipad gen 6 (2018), an apple pencil and the onenote app for this last school year i'm a third year uni student and i can honestly say this is hands down the best thing i ever did!, you can insert your slides and write your notes right beside them so you always know what note was made about what point, you can use the split screen feature to have your book on one side and your notes on the other , you can easly rewrite notes to make them more orgnized without the guilt of wasting paper, you can save all the notes you toke from past cources easly, no need to carry pens, books, slides, paper as you can easly replace all of them with the ipad it's really great I LOVE IT only down side tho is you can't use it to upload homework or assignmants to blackboard
I went back to college last year and my iPad was so helpful, especially around exam time. Plus all my lecturers thought it was really cool
Aww that’s awesome ! 👌🏼😍
This is absolutely what I needed to answer my question about going paperless and knowing when to use your laptop vs. ipad as I always have struggled to determine this by myself. THANK YOUUUU!!!
I have brought my tablet to class to not only take notes but to also record the lecture. After wards I had write them and add in elements i missed but was able to record. This has saved me!
I got a bonus at my old job last year, and I opted to use it for an iPad and the new Apple Pencil (gen2). It was probably the most expensive indulgence I have ever made, and I was TERRIFIED to use it. I am heavy handed, so the screen was freaking me out some, even though I really liked the options for it.
One of the things I purchased to make my life easier was a screen cover/protector. The one I have is a thicker plastic, but it doesn't affect the use of the screen at all. So if you, like me, are heavy handed and scared of using the screen, invest in a screen protector! I now use my iPad all the time and I am much more confident about using it.
That's also why I have qualms switching to 100% digital. When I was in high school my heavy hand writing left rough textured marks at the back of the page I wrote in
Some things I thought I think are worth mentioning:
One Note:
-It supports pressure sensitivity, so your strokes get thicker the more pressure you add. This makes your handwriting ten times better and more paper like
- It also has a really good lasso tool which does exactly what the goodnote lasso tool does.
- You can change your paper type, that means you get lined or boxed pages
-It's really good to import pics and pdfs to write notes on.
About the iPad and apple pencil thing:
- Don't get an iPad Pro, it is super expensive especially for people who won't be using the hell out of it.
- A great alternative is the iPad 6, has exactly half of all the features of the iPad Pro, and it supports Apple Pencil. This makes it really good for people using it for hobbies/studying. Also, it's half the price at $329.
-If you're a college student, Apple has a really good student discount over its products!
dude you had the opportunity to say "note worthy" and you missed it
I got the ipad pro 10.5 in for $450! It’s not crazy expensive and it works wonderfully
My school uses the iPad 6 n ur right it’s pretty good
@@liaharv8161 how so? student discount?
Jen Jiang Nope, I just found a great deal on Ebay, it came with a screen protector and a leather case. Last time I checked there were multiple of these deals on Ebay, you just gotta look hard enough haha
I used the surface pro 4 all through my engineering masters program, and it was perfect. I still have all my notes in one note and accessible from anywhere, even now that I'm using a surface pro 7.I love the tips in your video,looking forward to more.
WOW this is amazing and I wish I was in school just to take digital notes but I think I can apply this to my regular day to day job instead :) Thanks for all the tips Caits xo
Thanks cuz xoxo 😍❤️ oh absolutely-I’m still using these tips for work now !
May be you can start digital planning now :)
same im 24 now, all my cool shcool and university days are over but i still use these for planning, ideas, stuff to remember to use in my designs etc. no matter what, taking notes is really motivational as for me i can capture the essence and the motivation i had at that time in a fun way that i can always use it later on and get stuff done.
And for someone like me who always keep forgetting, everything i learn, everything i wanted to do, i just forget, i have a goldfish brain, so this really helps to remember and keep coming back to check on stuff i once did or wanted to do lol.
Starting at U of T in a couple of weeks and this was so useful. Looking forward to making good use of One Note, Goodnote and my iPad Pro! Thanks, Caitlin.
THANK YOU!! I'll be a freshman next month and your pointing out of features within each app is helpful for me to discern how my note-taking system will turn out.
Going full digital this semester with a new ipad air+stylus. Definitely using this video as a start :D thank you!!
Same here bruh 😆.. i just cant wait my ipad air to arrive😁
Love these tips. For me at the end of the day - when I want to do review for exams, I still need to print my notes out and see them all spread out in one physical table so I can see the flow. Haha and it is easier on the eyes. Looking at screens for too long tires my eyes.
I've always been one to favor pen+paper notetaking because I felt that digital notetaking would be too bland, but this video really has me considering trying a tablet and stencil considering the customization and easy formatting,thanks!🌟
Your videos are so calming and aesthetically pleasing but also so informative - this is my second time watching this video lol. THANK YOU
I just finished university and graduating next November. I wish I knew about this channel beforehand. Keep doing what you are doing!
OneNote has page templates for business, academic, planners, decorative, etc., under the Insert tab, so you can set your page to 8.5x11. Remove the Page Title under the View tab. You're also able to select the color and size of your pen and lasso your text. One feature that would be nice to have is the zoom that GoodNotes has.
No you can't insert say a A4 page. It will show up as a picture inside of your original page. It doesn't have the ability to insert templates and has other so many issues.
@@MrGarg10may In OneNote on Windows Desktop you can set the page size to A4 or literally any other size you want, because you can set the actual size (or choose a preset size, like A4). You can import a PDF into OneNote but you're right that it sets it as an image rather than an actual PDF. You can create your own templates with anything and everything you put on a page, which I've done to create a gratitude journal with custom borders for each section, or put my company logo as a header.
been doing fountain pens and handwritten for years. This is the first example of something that seems it may be able to incorporate the same charm and tactile feel of writing into note taking. Thanks for the video.
Oh my god I just got OneNote on my computer and I can already tell that I'm going to use it so much!! Thank you Caitlin, you literally just saved my academic career!!!!!!!!
Excellent tips! I use OneNote on my iPad but I will now be incorporating Good Notes into my workflow.
IN LOVE with this editing style!!!
Thank-youuuu!!! I’m so happy with how it turned out...wanted to try something different :))
i’m binging alll your note taking videos and lovingg it, I’m starting my first year of university so it’s been superr helpful!!
i've been using onenote for last semester and mostly for writing. so, i decided to get a better writing note app and you've convinced me to get the goodnotes! thank you for the video!
This video is so well done and edited so nicely, getting an iPad Pro for school so thank you love for the video!!
I am that person who would totally absolutely love writing notes on ipad at school (cause I always rewrited them again at home to make them more consistent). Sadly it wasn't there ten years ago :D
Rewriting your notes is actually a good thing. It helps you learn better.
I'm a LOOOOOOONG way past university age, but i do have numerous times when i need to take notes. I bought my iPad pencil about a year ago and never got around to using it. Then you come along in my youtube feed and show me how. Thank you! Thanks for resisting the tempation to give us a Demo of OneNote or Goodnotes. Instead you showed us how you take notes. That's a very different thing. In a demo you owant to show us how everything in teh software works, whether you'd use it or not. instead, you showed us what was useful to you and that's FAR more useful. So thank you again.
I am a returning mature student and I just want to say a huge THANK YOU for posting this extremely helpful video! I am taking online courses to finish a major and just feel overwhelmed with figuring out the best route for note taking, organizing etc. I am not in a position to buy the iPad pro yet but the more i watch/read, it seems like this is the way to go. I may settle on the low-end wacom writing tablet for $100 in the meantime, though I know it won't be ideal. Thanks again!
YAS GIRL!!! I’m so happy for this. I’m a sophomore in college, and I have been debating on going digital with my college notes.
Happy to deliver !! Hope it helps :D
I’m going into freshman year and my high school gives us iPads so I’m so grateful for that
As someone has been working on onenote for some time, thank you for your tips on how to use it together with goodnotes! Now I feel more confident I can use my iPad as a true extension of my pre-existing laptop note-taking!
Just started my digital note taking completely this semester on my iPad so it been a challenge not only to learn but to also its been great to make my life easier from the amount of items in my backpack as well as learning how I can take better notes and being organized, I am definitely going to try one note since it is a free program my school gives us
I'll get an iPad Pro this week and I'm so excited
I loved your video on this! I'm looking to pick up a tablet soon so I can start taking handwritten notes in one place instead of 50 notebooks.
Also, not sure if anyone else needs a decent flashcard app, but Anki is a free tool that lets you create flashcards that you can sync across your devices (you can also use drawings, insert pictures, etc). I also really like that it dynamically shows you the material you actually need to learn (i.e. you'll see flashcards you get wrong more often so you can actually learn the material).
I haven’t been a student for some time and tech has really moved on since then so this is really useful to me. There are lots of topics I study in my personal space and I’m still trying to assimilate them in analogue ways. I’ll definitely be trying some of your suggestions. Thanks!
Hey! This is a great video! I'm a Medical student and we have three day long classes 12 hours a day! I use OneNote to make notes in my Surface since last year also! My approach is little different but this looks awesome too!
I have the same Lenovo. Havent tried the stylus but will start to do digital note taking!
This video is incredibly well done in structure, aesthetics, content and edition. Thank you very much for your insights.
Well done. I was looking for this kind of comparison between the two apps and you really delivered. Thank you for your concise, thorough, and well delivered content!
I've bought the s6 lite, and had no idea how to do digital notes and your video really helped. Thankyou😊
This is your best video yet! Thank you so much for making this, it’s so helpful. I’m still considering getting an iPad for digital note taking, and I know this will help with my decision :) 💖
Oh you are so sweet, Victoria ! Thanks for the love ❤️ good luck with your decision :)
I love the editing of this video so much ❣️❣️❣️
Love this, thank you so much! I see all these girls in my classes taking notes on their tablets and it looks way cooler and more fun than what I do on Microsoft Word. I didn't even know about One Note.
This is such a useful video! I’m going to university next fall and having the transition from paper notes to online note taking is overwhelming, so thank you for your advice.
This video way more realistic and practical for a digital note taking content, great job! P.S Going to uni this year, wish me luck
I recently discovered your channel and I love it so so much! It's so inspiring! ❤
perfect video! loved it..just got an ipad 9th and im loving the idea of writing down and also having this facility of adding pictures. during the classes, it makes my life sooo much easier!
Just bought an iPad in preparation for uni - super excited!
Please do a short and small tutorial on how to colour drop in OneNote. I myself do not know and many other people are also asking how you do it.
I used Evernote for years, but now I'm loving OneNote.
@kain seviers shit onenote is free for all platforms now
How do you print your notes if there are no boundaries?
This just gave me so much energy for the new year!!! I did digital note taking last year but i was starting to get board of it, but just inspired me to be more creative and more engaged in my notes.
The OCD notetaker in me was so freaking pleased. Thank you for this very well executed video!
I switched to typing my in class notes this semester. I still do all my reading notes by hand but that's mostly because I'm a huge stationery nerd
I got an iPad Mini with an Apple Pencil to do my notes, 11/10 experience ^^
Is there enough space to write?
@@majooleonmagnani5246 yeah there's enough space, and since it's the size of a notebook portability is unbeatable, I had mine stolen =(
Emily trade it in and get another
Carlitox b sorry to hear that, losing things (especially tech) is the absolute worst. Hope you’ll be able to save up for a new one!
Emily it would be if it was 2018 or newer
I am so excited with the back to school series Caitlin! 😁
I’m going like 3/4 digital i’m super excited! Watching this on my new ipad ☺️☺️
I went paperless back in January. I think I finally have enough notes to make a video on it lol
yess fainaly. maybe digital note taking is wayyy easer i will try it maybe it works better. thank youuuu you are helpfull as usual.❤👌😍
Real paper is always my true love, but this is definitely a great route to go for student life 👌🏼 might have to share some more physical note taking tips in a video
Perfect video! I‘m getting an iPad Pro this week for university and I can’t wait to use it!
Bought an iPad Air 4 and Apple Pencil because of you and I love taking notes on notability and good notes ! I love taking notes now.
I think a hybrid between paper and digital works best for me! :)
Thanks for the video Caitlin
Same :) I download (or purchase from etsy) handwritten (note-taking) fonts that look like a kid or a student's handwriting, my fave free font are Gaegu and Caroni. So I type instead of writing but it still gives the effect of handwriting.
Thank you for this! I’m going to try OneNote for grad school this semester (:
I've just started digital note taking in the last few weeks. I'm an online student and now instead of printing out my slides etc from my lecturers I import them into GoodNotes on my iPad and write freely on there, adding blank pages if I need. This is whilst I'm in/watching class on my laptop. Saves so much space on my desk!
Ohh I love saving space ! Haha 🙌😍🤣 glad it’s been working for you Sarah :))
Great video! I used my iPad, a stylus (pre Apple pencil days), and goodnotes to take notes and annotate PDFs provided by Profs. I have used Notability and a few other note taking apps and imo, GoodNotes is by far the best. GoodNotes also has an iPhone and Mac version so you have access to your GoodNotes across devices right in the app.
The levovo yoga’s are perfect for me since it can be used as a normal laptop or flipped around to be drawn on & comes with a stylus 😌
i just got mine, and it's fantastic!!!
Yes, The Lenovo Yoga 730 (or C930 if your willing to pay for more for looks and new model but same components) is perfect for any college student that would like to do both.
The airplane autopilot scene was on point!!!!!! Thanks for your humor :-)
This was really really helpful because I never knew like what to do and how to format notes. Whether it’s online or not and it’s just helps me get a good understanding of how to take “good notes”. 😊
Thank you for your helpful clip, I'm struggling at taking note and writing while i can't decide which devices i should use, you've been a life saver
i'm in love with goodnotes
My iPad Pro was an amazing tool for calculus. No more heaps of paper with solved exercises to look through. Also no more eraser droppings after making mistakes.
Really helpful. I was wondering how to take notes this fall for class and you proved me with new ways to take notes
Congrats. Best video on note taking I saw. Great hints and objective information. Thanks.
08:35 If you want to format the exact same font as something else, use “format” function (which can be found next to Paste under the Home Tab).
Now I wish I had seen a video like this before getting this close (1 week to be precise) to graduate from university...
I changed to digital notes my last semester of college and I loved it. If you are considering it I highly recommend it! I was kicking myself the whole time for not changing to digital sooner. It’s just not that common in rural Missouri colleges.
Great video. Just randomly watched it. I used to take digital notes when I was in school no so long ago using my Microsoft Surface. A device with a stylus is a must have when it comes to writing down equations, drawing quick graphs, circuits and what not.
As for the comparison of OneNote with the other app (too lazy to lookup the name), I feel almost everything except the auto zoom in feature can be done on OneNote too.
1. Make your life easier by making OneNote page ruled. There are different styles of ruled pages that you can choose from. Definitely makes note taking super easy.
2. OneNote does have a tool where you can move sections of your notes around. I can't remember what the function was but I'm not entirely sure if it was like the lasso tool.
3. You do have different customization options on OneNote for the type of pen/pencil you use.
Honestly that auto zoom feature is probably the best differentiating feature on the other app because on OneNote maintaining consistent font sizes and page dimensions were impossible given that you could zoom in/out as much as you'd like.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I’m a mature age student struggling between paper and the digital old. I love both and you have shown me how to combine my love of both during my double degree, as being organised is the key to success. It’s not all about the brains! 🙏
I always loved taking notes on paper but now that I really need to be sustainable I try to use only recycled paper and looking into digital notetaking as well. Maybe you can address that aspect in your videos too, more people need to be aware of our environmental changes, and this is a really good way to do that! (what you showed in the vid)
Using paper is better for the environment than using digital note taking. Paper can be easily recycled, but keeping your notes on a cloud uses a lot of energy to make the database server work.
You know more people buying ipads is way worse than “chopping down trees”. More ipads = more mining of metals such as cobalt and lithium in developing countries by children trying to earn enough money to get food. Mining ruins environment. Think about all the pollution that it will take to make just the battery of the ipad.
And a lot of paper manufacturers use bamboo. And bamboo grows extremely fast. Also especially in the U.S they take trees down in a sustainable manner so there’s enough time for other trees to grow. Developing countries don’t even care about sustainability.
This was so helpful!!! I got an iPad Pro and was planning on using it for taking notes and all the tips and tricks I learned will be super helpful:) thanks
I think your video has been the most helpful for me getting comfortable with digital note taking! ☺️💖
Finally here! The video everyone has been waiting for! 💕💕💕💕😍😍😍
If not everyone - then just me! I'm so excited to watch it and sooooo happy that Caitlin finally made one😻 I am so curious what she have for us!
Haha omg I know 😅
I’m starting college this year and I plan to purchase the iPad 6th gen just because it’s on the cheaper end even though i rather have a pro of course who wouldn’t it works better with my budget because I’m also purchasing a MacBook Air for my typing portion of notes and class work I love to hand write notes so I’m very exited to get my iPad but I’m so nervous to go paperless when it comes to text books do you find it easier to have them online or still hand flip the pages from an actual book? Great video keep up the great work!❤️
I just bought myself an iPad for university and I haven’t been able to try it out for studying yet, but I’m trying to get used to GoodNotes before I go back to uni and I am loving it. I think this was the best decision I could make because I study Maths and I really wanted to have everything digitalised, but couldn’t do it with a laptop
Love this video, no frills or extra "cute-sy" stuff. Just straight to the point. Thank you!

You could go to View>Paper size
then customize your desired paper size and then save it as a template.
To make it your default template:
Go to Insert > Page Template > Always use a specific template, and then select the template you just made.
yessss i do the same thing, but i think that she uses onenote for windows 10, wich is another version and doesn´t have that option😔
I’m starting my PhD program in a week and I can’t wait to go paperless! Your video is absolutely great and helpful!!
Good luck. What is your major?
Kefil Tonouewa thank you. Second language education.
Is it after masters degree (or after graduate)? I’m a foreigner, so I’m not sure
I’m studying for bachelor of law btw
I hope you’re enjoying studying and researching
@@UshankaMaster in US, many PhD programs don't require a masters degree.
Not in school, but I'm a software dev and I constantly have to take notes for product design and planning and I use notion for just about everything. Kanban, general notes, documentation, etc.
Excellent video! Very informative. This makes me excited to start using my iPad when i start school this fall.
