Hey guys, so just as a heads up, I don’t think that highlighting your already made notes is that effective unless it’s for aesthetic. However for many subjects like English classes or humanities, you are often given a bulk amount of readings and I believe that highlighting not only helps you digest the content but it also makes note taking easier afterwards. Though some people find it hard to figure out what they need to be highlighting so I’ve come up with a few ideas.

Terms often come into play when digesting a lot of textbook readings where ideas are being explained to you and often you will want this definition to be readily available when revising too so its good to highlight these when you come across them.

Key concepts can be really good to highlight when trying to understand scientific concepts within research articles or when reading persuasive texts as you can relate the material back to your core unit of work. Alternatively you can use concept to highlight the main idea of paragraphs or chapters to give you a quick reference of summary when studying.

I find examples to come particularly handy in studies which are applied to everyday situations, for example a law textbook may discuss a concept and give an applicable example which I would then highlight. Or in math you may highlight an example problem to help you if you get stuck later.

This highlighter was a godsend in my last exams, especially for history because I’d be reading so many historians and articles and when it came to writing essays it would only take me seconds to find a good reinforcing quote as I’d been highlighting them all along. Or even in English you can highlight quotes from reviews or scholars to be used to back up your argument.

This one is mainly for English and literature studies because when analysing devices and giving examples of these it helps when they are already highlighted. It’s all about studying smarter not harder and getting things done efficiently so this step really has helped me out.

Again another more humanities point as you often have to create a mental catalogue of people involved and the context of situations to understand the severity of moments in history. Though in science and other subjects it’s always good to know what pages are talking about what professors or scholars or historical figures.

Finally, in many subjects you are expected to produce a mental timeline of events especially in history and it becomes confusing to pinpoint events and dates together so this step helps to take the labour out of that situation.

I hope this helps you guys out. I also like to just make a key for my highlighting that I use for a bookmark, that way I can constantly refer to it. Message me if you have any ideas or things you want me to post about.

My life so far, illustrated in 4 panels. 😅 Really though, I have no clue how to do anything when I first start, but part of life is doing them anyways and figuring it out along the way!

transport proteins!

A mnemonic for remembering the types of transport proteins: Can I Carry The Ruddy Red Apple?

Can: Channel Proteins

open passageways for certain hydrophilic substances (polar/charged molecules)

example: aquaporins are a passage for water

I: Ion Channels

passage for ions

example: gated channels (nerve/muscle cells) open to specific chemical/electrical signals

Carry: Carrier Proteins

bind to specific molecules that are transferred across when protein changes shape

example: glucose enters cells by carrier proteins

The: Transport Proteins

use energy (ATP) to actively transport materials across membrane

example: sodium potassium pumps use ATP to maintain Na+/K+ concentrations outside/inside cell

Ruddy: Recognition Proteins

gives cells unique identification, recognize self and foreign cells

actually glycoproteins, proteins with short polysaccharide chains

example: different blood types have cells with different recognition proteins

Red: Receptor Proteins

binding sites for hormones/other triggering molecules

specific cell response activated

Apple: Adhesion Proteins

attach cells to neighboring cells 

provide anchors for internal filaments/tubules
