YouTube Learning Log

The YouTube Learning Log is a Notion template designed to help you organise the videos you watch, capture useful ideas, and build your own personal knowledge library over time. Whether you're learning new skills, studying, or just trying to be more intentional with your time online, it gives you a simple place to keep everything in one spot.

Why I Made It:

I created this learning log to help me stop scrolling mindlessly and start learning with more intention. It’s really helped me work toward my personal goal of moving away from forgettable, low-value content and actually using the internet as a tool to learn.

As part of that, I noticed I was watching a lot of YouTube but forgetting most of what I watched soon after. I needed a simple way to keep track of what I was learning and make it stick. This template is the system I built for myself to organise videos, take simple notes, and actually remember what I learn.

NOTE: The notes, video titles, and learning goals shown in the screenshots are just examples to show how the template can be used. They aren’t included - you’ll receive a clean version ready for your own content.
