Studying from lecture recordings

Recorded lectures are great until exam week, when there are twenty of them and no time to rewatch any. Here’s a routine that gets you to the parts that matter.

Summarize each lecture

Run each recording through once. The summary and chapters give you an outline of every class you can scan in a minute.

Quiz yourself

Ask the video the questions you expect on the exam. Compare its answer with your own, then click the timestamp to hear how the lecturer explained it.

• “How is X defined?”
• “What example was used for Y?”
• “What did the lecturer say would be on the exam?”
