I’m terrible at learning from powerpoints just by watching/listening so I would write down ppt slides word for word in lectures. I absolutely could never keep up with the lecture pace, the instructors would move on to the next slide too quickly. They were usually great lecturers, it’s just inefficient to spend the extremely precious lecture time waiting for students to copy things down.

I did finally settle on a better solution, because my professors all shared the ppt slides at least day-of for every lecture. So I downloaded the ppt onto my tablet and used a stylus to write my notes to each slide. It worked well for me
