fiche de lecture

[roozmanager]

Hi,

I want to know what is the English equivalent of the French expression "fiche de lecture" ? This expression is used when, in university researches, we read a book and want to make a "compte rendu " of it.

Thanks in advance

How would one translate the term fiche de lecture in english?

Googling gives me the following possible translations:

Reading chart
Synopsis
Reading list
Readers notes

Synopsis seems to be the best choice (when I consider the situation where a professor gives a student, an article to read, and asks him to do a fiche de lecture). Can anybody please confirm, is this the right term that one uses in schools in alglophone countries ...
