"Students receive a copy of notes that summarize content from an upcoming assigned reading, but that includes blanks in place of key words. As students read, they supply the missing content into the blanks."

"Guided Reading Notes scaffold active learning by requiring students to read closely in order to locate the information needed to complete the guide. The technique helps them understand what is most important about the reading. It also allows students to create a complete set of notes that can serve as a study guide for an upcoming exam, paper, or project." — Learning Assessment Techniques, Barkley, EF and Major, CH, 2016
