Here is an excerpt taken from Putting it all Together; Understanding the Research Behind Interactive Notebooks by Caroline C. Wist from The College of William and Mary:
        The interactive notebook tries to meet the needs of the students on both sides of the notebook. The left side is for student to        
        demonstrate learning while the right side is for the teacher to provide content knowledge. 
This helps the “brain by making
        connections between what is experienced (learned) and what that experience (information) means to the learner” (Caine, 2005).    
        Here is an example of what type of information could be demonstrated through the content on each side of the interactive
        notebook.


Left Side
• Brainstorming Mind maps
• Concept maps Venn diagrams
• Pictures Drawings
• Diagrams Writing prompts
• Flow charts Poems
• Homework Songs
• Worksheets Self reflections
• Labs Quizzes, tests
• Class work or teamwork activities

Right Side
• Worksheets
• Vocabulary words
• Concept information such as definitions or facts
• Text book notes
• Film or video notes
• Guest speaker notes/questions
• Notebook prompt
• Direct answers to questions from the book
