Found a video discussing cognitive loading.
The amount of information you can hold in your working memory at any given time.
Amount of mental resources needed to grasp the subject. Calculus has a high intrinsic cognitive load. If you are distracted in the middle of a problem set you will probably have to start over.
It is in subjects with low intrinsic cognitive load that you want to try and maximize germaane cognitive load.
Any load that needs to be applied that isn’t directly related to the material itself.
Linking the target material to other relevant/germane knowledge.
Reviewing content that will be presented/lectured the next day primes you for germane cognitive load.
Notes need to be as short as possible to capture the idea.
How is the idea related to the other elements of the lecture?
How is the professor going to test on it as multiple choice?
What is the professor about to say?
Same day review should be after some kind of break between the lecture and reviewing the same day.
Anything confusing? Review audio, ask friends, post to class forum for an answer. Go to office hours if these fail.
Active recall - from the topic or note, try to recreate what it covered.
