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 speaker’s main points. Don’t write down every word you
hear.
2. Leave blanks in your notes to add explanations 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.
