A private notebook for this lecture. Everything you write stays in your own browser and is saved as you type. The fields follow the three stages set out in the learning area: write the question you want to ask before it (prepare), set down the argument once you have heard it (attend), then your own response and a further question (reflect).

Every lecture’s notes can be listed, downloaded, backed up and deleted in My learning record, in the Learning area →

This browser will not let the site keep anything, so what you write disappears when you leave the page. The usual causes are a private window or a setting that blocks site data. Copy anything you need first.

1. 1Prepare

   Before the lecture: settle on this one, watch the guide and the original Nobel Lecture, and write the question you want to ask.

   Look up whatever you do not know — the official citation on nobelprize.org, the laureate’s own institution, Wikipedia. An hour of background changes what the same fifty minutes is worth.

   Watched the original Nobel Lecture
   A question for the speaker These three are the judging criteria of the Into the Nobel question competition.

   • Depth: it reaches the trade-offs and limits behind the work.
   • Logic: the question stands up, and its premise holds.
   • Originality: the answer cannot simply be looked up.

   Copy “Prepare”

2. 2Attend

   While you listen or watch: note that you have seen the Taiwan lecture, and set down the argument in your own words.

   Watched the Taiwan lecture
   The speaker’s core argument What the lecture argues — in your own words.

   Copy “Attend”

3. 3Reflect

   Afterwards: your own response, and what you would still ask.

   Your reflection What surprised you, what you disagree with, how it differs from the original Nobel Lecture.
   An extension question (at least one) Something the speaker would want to answer, and that cannot be looked up.
   Copy “Reflect”

What you write stays in this browser and is never uploaded. It disappears if you switch machines or clear site data, so keep a copy of anything you need.

Notes are to be written by the student; how each field is written (typed, pasted or inserted automatically) is recorded alongside it and goes into the file exported from the learning area.
