Where can I find free study templates online?
Diaposi has ten, ready on your learning board: a Cornell page, a revision board, a KWL chart, Venn diagrams with 2 or 3 circles, a concept map, a flowchart, a SWOT analysis, Crazy 8 and a weekly plan. Open a board and pick one: it is laid out in the middle of your view. Then write on the notes, rename the columns, move, add and delete what you want. The templates are in every plan, the Free plan included.
How to start from a template, in three steps
Open a board
An empty board offers the ten templates by itself. On any board, they are under File, then Templates.
Pick a template
One press lays it out in the middle of your view: its frames, its notes and its labels, ready to fill.
Make it yours
Write on the notes, rename the columns, add the pages of your course beside it. Everything can be moved, changed or deleted.
Templates to take notes and revise
Cornell notes template
A Cornell page splits the sheet in three: cues on the left, notes on the right, a summary at the foot. Write the lecture on the right, the questions it answers on the left, then sum it up in two lines. On Diaposi it is a page of yellow paper on your board.
Revision board
One board to revise a chapter: a Cornell page, a frame of key terms on sticky notes, and a frame for the questions to ask. Fill it while you read, and your revision sheet is done.
KWL chart template
Three columns: what you Know, what you Want to know, what you Learned. Fill the first two before a chapter and the last one after it: you see what the chapter changed.
Weekly plan template
A column for each day, Monday to Sunday. Stick a note for each thing to revise, and move it when your week changes.
Templates to compare, connect and decide
Concept map template
One main idea in the middle, six notes linked to it by arrows. Write a notion on each note and move them where you want: the arrows follow. Made to see how the parts of a chapter hold together.
Venn diagram template, 2 or 3 circles
Two or three circles that overlap. Write what belongs to one topic in its circle, and what the topics share where the circles cross. Made to compare notions that look alike.
Flowchart template
Five boxes from Start to End, joined by arrows: write one step in each. Useful for a method, a proof or a process to know in order.
SWOT analysis template
Four frames: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, with a note to start in each. Use it on a case study, or on your own revision before an exam.
Crazy 8 template
Eight frames for eight quick sketches. Draw eight ways to picture one idea, one frame each, with the pen.

How do I start from a template?
Open a learning board: an empty board offers the templates by itself. On a board you already use, open File, then Templates. One press lays the template out in the middle of your view.
Can I change a template?
Yes, all of it. A template is made of the board's own notes, frames, shapes and arrows: move them, rename them, recolour them, delete them, and add your own.
What is the Cornell note-taking method?
A page in three parts: notes on the right, written during the lecture; cues on the left, the questions and key words the notes answer; and a short summary at the foot. Diaposi's Cornell page is laid out this way, on yellow paper.
What is a KWL chart?
A chart of three columns: what you Know, what you Want to know and what you Learned. You fill the first two before studying a topic and the third after it. Diaposi lays it out with a sticky note in each column.
Can I use several templates on one board?
Yes. Each press lays another template out in the middle of your view. A board holds up to 100 elements on the Free plan and 1,000 on paid plans, drawing and document pages not counted.
Can I put my course next to a template?
Yes. Add a PDF, PowerPoint, Word or Excel file to the board and place its pages beside the template. A board takes 1 document on the Free plan and 10 on paid plans.
Can I export or print a template?
On Pro, yes: export the whole board, with the template and what you wrote, as an image or a PDF.
Does AI fill the template for me?
No. A template is yours to fill: writing it is how you learn. Diaposi AI works on your documents on the same board: it explains a page, summarises a file and writes quizzes.
Are there templates for teaching?
Yes. A host's whiteboard has three more: Lesson in 4 steps, Brainstorm, and Explain a concept, with its definition, key features, examples and non-examples.
