Note-Taking Strategies Part 2
During Class
One approach that has been proven
effective is called the Cornell Note-Taking System. Here are some of its
methods. Start by using the main section of your page to take down your notes
during class. Be sure to leave space on the left side of the page and the
bottom. Things to keep in mind:
1. Get the speakers main points. Don’t write down every word you hear.
2. Leave blanks in your notes to add later.
3. Organize as you write. Pay attention to cues such as repetition and
emphasis.
4. Indicate main and supporting points as you go.
5. Jot down key vocabulary, important facts and formulas.
6. Ask questions. If you’re confused, it’s better to ask while the material
is fresh in your mind.
