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 his methods.
Start by using the main section of you page to take down 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 right down every word you hear.
2.   Leave blanks in your notes to add explanations later
3.   Organize as you write. Pay attention to clues such as repetition and emphasis
4.   Indicate main and supporting points as you go.
5.   Jot down key vocabulary and important facts and formulas
6.   Ask questions. If you’re confused, it’s better to ask while the material is fresh in your mind.
