Yowzah.

Actually............. (Martin Naylor might be interested in this):

The concept of how learning happens in a classroom or rather, how it happens
most efficiently and with the greatest and longest lasting value to the 
student is
(afaik - [are people who often use lots of acronyms collectively known as 
acronies?])
intensely researched.

A local college professor once came up with a method students can use to take 
notes
during class (or any lecture) where they are able to quickly organize and 
record knowledge
they acquire in a way that will enable them to recall the maximum amount of 
it quickly and accurately
when needed at a later time.
I think it is a process of "visualization" during which a symbol is used to 
represent a large
chunk of information. Viewing any of these symbols later triggers total 
recall of the body of
information associated with them. This system was labelled "Chunking". I 
think a book was to be
written based on the class that was taught on this subject. Evidently this 
method could be widely
and effectively utilized throughout academia and industry.

Maybe this is old hat and some of you know more about this. I would 
appreciate links to resources
if available.
