Rotem Einat

I am currently a master’s student in the Learning Disability Evaluation and Remediation program at the University of Haifa. I earned my B.A. in Psychology and Education from Tel-Hai Academic College, which is located in the Upper Galilee mountains.

My master’s research under the joint supervision of Professor Michal Shany and Dr. Orly Lipka examined the process of note-taking in higher education, with a focus on mapping note-taking methods in the Computer Sciences and Education departments. Specifically, I studied the means used for note-taking (laptop, pen and paper, audio recording), writing styles, and before-, during-, and after-class note-taking strategies.

In addition, I work at the Haifa Learning Enhancement Center, and as a remediation teacher at the Leo Baeck Elementary School.
