'make it stick' を読んでいます。 本の題名と同じ表題の 'Make It Stick' の章から引用します。

She's teaching physiology, which is about how things work, so the summaries take on the form of large cartoons dense with callouts, blowups, directional arrows, and the like. The sheets help her students synthesize a week's information, thinking through how systems are connected: "This is causing this, which causes this, which feeds back on those. We use a lot of arrows in physiology. The students can work with each other, I don't care. The sheet they bring in just has to be their own."

・Merriam-Webster: an often bordered inset in a printed article or illustration that usually includes a key excerpt or detail

百科事典のウィキペディアにもっと分かり易い説明がありました。
・Wikipedia: In publishing, a callout or call-out is a short string of text connected by a line, arrow, or similar graphic to a feature of an illustration or technical drawing, and giving information about that feature. The term is also used to describe a short piece of text set in larger type than the rest of the page and intended to attract attention. In documents that need to be translated often a neutral callout is used. By using numbers or letters as callout in combination with an image caption, translation is more efficient since the same graphic can be used in all languages.
