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
explanations later.
3. Organize as you write. Pay attention to
cures 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.
