Study Guide & Strategies
Taking notes in lectures
A good strategy of note
taking in class will pay off in terms of effectiveness and time
savings.
Record * Reduce * Recite *
Reflect * Review
You can develop your own
system based on a few elementary strategies:
Think in terms
of three main sections:
-
A central space for
identifying the main
points
capturing the main ideas
not quoting the lecturer
(if you want to quote someone, bring a tape recorder if it is
permitted)
-
a marginal space for
editing or annotating what you have written,
linking information from
the text or other sources,
adding definitions
-
a "condensing" or summary section
