Taking Good Notes
 Students may not realize how important it is to
  take good notes.
 Taking good notes is an acquired skill that can
  serve as an important tool for understanding key
  concepts and preparing for tests.
What is “Acquired skill”? It means you can learn the
best way to take notes by using one or more of the
strategies detailed in this chapter.
Good Notes
 Taking notes helps the listener to stay focused,
  recognize main ideas, and understand the
  material being covered.
 The notes can later be used as a study aid- kind
  of like an external memory device that aids in
  recovery and review.
 There are many different ways you can take
  notes.
Cornell’s 5Rs of Note Taking
 Divide your notebook paper into 5 section as
  shown on the worksheet. See page 24
 Record: Date and number your pages; write
  clearly; in the main section of the paper jot down
  words and phrases to identify facts and main
  ideas; abbreviate when possible.
 Reduce: Go over your notes as soon as you can
  and write down keywords and their definitions in
  the top part of the column on the left side of the
  paper. Highlight or underline important facts and
  dates in the main section.
Cornell’s 5Rs of Note Taking
 Recite: Go back over your notes and rewrite them or
  repeat them out loud. ( Think of you learning style)
  Memorize important facts and details.
 Reflect: Write down questions or things to be
  researched on the bottom left side of the column.
  Include possible questions that could be asked on an
  exam. At the very bottom of the page, summarize the
  book/chapter of what you read or heard in class.
 Review: Go over notes frequently to keep them fresh
  in your memory. Don’t just re-read them; cover them
  up and test your ability to recall. Also, make sure all of
  the questions in the workspace have been answered.

Cornell’s 5Rs of Note Taking
Mind Map Method:
 Mind mapping is a creative technique that can
 help note takers quickly identify the structure of a
 subject and understand how all of the places fit
 together. It helps with the complex problem
 solving and makes it easy to absorb information
 from different sources.
Mind Map Guidelines
 Write the title of the subject or book you are
  studying in the center of the page and draw a
  circle around it.
 List major subtopics or subdivisions around the
  circle and draw lines to those from the main topic
 As you move deeper into the subject or book you
  may discover more levels of information that can
  be linked to the subtopics. Jot those down and
  draw a line connecting them.
Mind Map Guidelines
 Use single words or simple phrases
 Highlight with different colors to keep sections
    and ideas separate.
   Use different symbols to identify different topics.
   Look on page 19 for an example of what a basic
    mind mapping looks like:

Mind Mapping
Periodical Method:
 Using the simple method is excellent for
 reviewing main subjects and key ideas. Divide a
 sheet of paper into three columns. The center
 column should be wider than the two outside
 columns. This is where the main notes/text will
 be written down so the answers can easily be
 found. Use words and phrases rather than full
 sentences. Afterwards, summarize your notes in
 the left-side column. Jot down question and ideas
 in the right –side column. See page 20

            column
Episodic Notes:
 This is a good technique for taking notes when
  you have a book or assignment that has different
  stages or scenes. Each “episode” or scene in the
  story can be broken down into sequences for
  better recall.
 Using the worksheet on page 25, draw a detailed
  picture in the box on the right side of how you
  visualize a particular scenario. ( Keep in mind that
  it doesn’t matter how well you draw because
  these are notes that only you will see.) Write
  down in the notes section what is happening and
  why it’s noteworthy.
Episodic Notes
Name:              Date:
Topic:             Class:

Interactive Notes
 Sometimes referred to as the “BFA System”
  Before, During and After), interactive note taking
  is a simple way to process reading assignments
  and develop ideas for easier recollection.
 Look at page 26, write down the title and
  subheadings of the book or chapter you are
  reading in the first column. Add relevant words,
  themes, headers, captions, and objectives. Ask
  yourself questions to look for in the story and
  make a guess as to what you think will happen.
Interactive Notes
 In the second column, write down questions and
    comments you may have as you are reading. For
    example
   I wonder why……… *What caused…….
   I think…… *This is similar to…..
   This is important because…* What do they mean
    by…… * What I find confusing is…..
   What will happen next is…..* I can relate to this
    because….*This reminds me of… * As I read, I
    keep wanting to ask……….
Interactive Notes
 The third column will be your summary as you make
    notes of important points of interest and ask follow-up
    questions for more details or research. Things to
    think about. For example: *Three important
    points/ideas are..
   These are important because…..
   What comes next…
   The author wants us to think….
   At this point the article/story is about…
   I still don’t understand……
   What interests me most was….
   This means that………
   See page 26

Topic:                          Class:

    Before          During                 After
Prepare to Read   Questions &            Summarize
                  Comments
Reading for Changes
 This method of note taking is when the student
  looks for changes or shifts in the text to help
  prompt memory recall, and is probably more
  useful when reading fiction. Things you are going
  to look for are:
 Setting – Does the location where the story is
  taking place change?
 Time – Does the story skip ahead or go
  backwards in time?
Reading for Changes
 Action – Does something happening in the story
  or whatever action the character is doing
  change?
 Point of View – Does the character’s attention
  shift from one focal point to another?
 Tone or Mood – Does the tone or mood of the
  story suddenly change?
Reading for Changes
 Direction or Focus – Does the story seem to be
  directed on a particular focal point or plot and
  then make a surprising shift?
 Condition or Status – Are there any changes to
  a character’s circumstances, behavior, physical or
  emotional well-being, or social status?
Reading for Changes
                            To help you evaluate the
                            significance of any changes,
To determine if something   next ask yourself the
has changed, ask yourself   following questions:
these questions.
                             Who or what did this
 What specifically
                              change have an effect
  changed?
                              on?
 What was the situation
                             How did this change
  before and after?
                              affect others in the
 Is the change               story?
  important? If so, how?
                             What was the reason
                              for the change?
Title Talk:
 This is an easy pre-reading method of note-
    taking that teaches students how to create their
    own ideas and predictions by linking the title with
    the text.
   Write down the title of the book or chapter in the
    center of your page.
   Circle the main words and then write any words
    around each one that you think applies.
   Skip ahead to read subheadings or chapter titles
    to see if they can offer additional ideas.
   Then read through the material you can add
    more relevant words.
Post – It Annotations:
 Post – It (a/k/a “sticky notes”) are great when
  using a book as a study resource that cannot be
  marked up.
 Stick a small cluster of sticky notes to the inside
  cover of the book so they are handy whenever
  you come across ideas, facts, and other
  information that should be noted. Jot down short
  details on the sticky note so that you will
  remember the page’s or section’s relevance.
 When you are ready to write your report or study
  for an exam, you can easily skim back through
  the book using the sticky notes.
What’s the Big Idea?
 Look at the worksheet on page 27.
 You can quickly make a synopsis of the book or
  chapter you are studying by identifying the main
  idea.
 First, write down what you think the main idea is.
 Then, focus on the idea by narrowing sown the
  main point(s).
 Finally, list the reasons why you thought this was
  the main idea of the book or chapter.
What’s the Big Idea?
                   What’s the big idea?




                What’s the Most Important Point(s)
 List the reasons why you thought this was the main idea of the
 book or chapter. Include relevant page numbers.

Strategies for taking good notes ppt

  • 1. Strategies for Taking Good Notes Chapter 3 www.getworksheets.com
  • 2. Taking Good Notes  Students may not realize how important it is to take good notes.  Taking good notes is an acquired skill that can serve as an important tool for understanding key concepts and preparing for tests. What is “Acquired skill”? It means you can learn the best way to take notes by using one or more of the strategies detailed in this chapter.
  • 3. Good Notes  Taking notes helps the listener to stay focused, recognize main ideas, and understand the material being covered.  The notes can later be used as a study aid- kind of like an external memory device that aids in recovery and review.  There are many different ways you can take notes.
  • 4. Cornell’s 5Rs of Note Taking  Divide your notebook paper into 5 section as shown on the worksheet. See page 24  Record: Date and number your pages; write clearly; in the main section of the paper jot down words and phrases to identify facts and main ideas; abbreviate when possible.  Reduce: Go over your notes as soon as you can and write down keywords and their definitions in the top part of the column on the left side of the paper. Highlight or underline important facts and dates in the main section.
  • 5. Cornell’s 5Rs of Note Taking  Recite: Go back over your notes and rewrite them or repeat them out loud. ( Think of you learning style) Memorize important facts and details.  Reflect: Write down questions or things to be researched on the bottom left side of the column. Include possible questions that could be asked on an exam. At the very bottom of the page, summarize the book/chapter of what you read or heard in class.  Review: Go over notes frequently to keep them fresh in your memory. Don’t just re-read them; cover them up and test your ability to recall. Also, make sure all of the questions in the workspace have been answered.  http://incompetech.com/graphpaper/cornelllined/
  • 6. Cornell’s 5Rs of Note Taking
  • 7. Mind Map Method:  Mind mapping is a creative technique that can help note takers quickly identify the structure of a subject and understand how all of the places fit together. It helps with the complex problem solving and makes it easy to absorb information from different sources.
  • 8. Mind Map Guidelines  Write the title of the subject or book you are studying in the center of the page and draw a circle around it.  List major subtopics or subdivisions around the circle and draw lines to those from the main topic  As you move deeper into the subject or book you may discover more levels of information that can be linked to the subtopics. Jot those down and draw a line connecting them.
  • 9. Mind Map Guidelines  Use single words or simple phrases  Highlight with different colors to keep sections and ideas separate.  Use different symbols to identify different topics.  Look on page 19 for an example of what a basic mind mapping looks like:  http://blog.iqmatrix.com/mind-map/advanced- mind-mapping-study-skills-mind-map  http://www.study-habits.com/how-to-mind-map
  • 11. Periodical Method:  Using the simple method is excellent for reviewing main subjects and key ideas. Divide a sheet of paper into three columns. The center column should be wider than the two outside columns. This is where the main notes/text will be written down so the answers can easily be found. Use words and phrases rather than full sentences. Afterwards, summarize your notes in the left-side column. Jot down question and ideas in the right –side column. See page 20
  • 12. Periodical Method Summary Notes Questions Summariz Questions and e notes Write notes in the middle ideas go here here column
  • 13. Episodic Notes:  This is a good technique for taking notes when you have a book or assignment that has different stages or scenes. Each “episode” or scene in the story can be broken down into sequences for better recall.  Using the worksheet on page 25, draw a detailed picture in the box on the right side of how you visualize a particular scenario. ( Keep in mind that it doesn’t matter how well you draw because these are notes that only you will see.) Write down in the notes section what is happening and why it’s noteworthy.
  • 14. Episodic Notes Name: Date: Topic: Class: Notes: Notes: Notes:
  • 15. Interactive Notes  Sometimes referred to as the “BFA System” Before, During and After), interactive note taking is a simple way to process reading assignments and develop ideas for easier recollection.  Look at page 26, write down the title and subheadings of the book or chapter you are reading in the first column. Add relevant words, themes, headers, captions, and objectives. Ask yourself questions to look for in the story and make a guess as to what you think will happen.
  • 16. Interactive Notes  In the second column, write down questions and comments you may have as you are reading. For example  I wonder why……… *What caused…….  I think…… *This is similar to…..  This is important because…* What do they mean by…… * What I find confusing is…..  What will happen next is…..* I can relate to this because….*This reminds me of… * As I read, I keep wanting to ask……….
  • 17. Interactive Notes  The third column will be your summary as you make notes of important points of interest and ask follow-up questions for more details or research. Things to think about. For example: *Three important points/ideas are..  These are important because…..  What comes next…  The author wants us to think….  At this point the article/story is about…  I still don’t understand……  What interests me most was….  This means that………  See page 26
  • 18. Interactive Notes Name: Date: Topic: Class: Before During After Prepare to Read Questions & Summarize Comments
  • 19. Reading for Changes  This method of note taking is when the student looks for changes or shifts in the text to help prompt memory recall, and is probably more useful when reading fiction. Things you are going to look for are:  Setting – Does the location where the story is taking place change?  Time – Does the story skip ahead or go backwards in time?
  • 20. Reading for Changes  Action – Does something happening in the story or whatever action the character is doing change?  Point of View – Does the character’s attention shift from one focal point to another?  Tone or Mood – Does the tone or mood of the story suddenly change?
  • 21. Reading for Changes  Direction or Focus – Does the story seem to be directed on a particular focal point or plot and then make a surprising shift?  Condition or Status – Are there any changes to a character’s circumstances, behavior, physical or emotional well-being, or social status?
  • 22. Reading for Changes To help you evaluate the significance of any changes, To determine if something next ask yourself the has changed, ask yourself following questions: these questions.  Who or what did this  What specifically change have an effect changed? on?  What was the situation  How did this change before and after? affect others in the  Is the change story? important? If so, how?  What was the reason for the change?
  • 23. Title Talk:  This is an easy pre-reading method of note- taking that teaches students how to create their own ideas and predictions by linking the title with the text.  Write down the title of the book or chapter in the center of your page.  Circle the main words and then write any words around each one that you think applies.  Skip ahead to read subheadings or chapter titles to see if they can offer additional ideas.  Then read through the material you can add more relevant words.
  • 24. Post – It Annotations:  Post – It (a/k/a “sticky notes”) are great when using a book as a study resource that cannot be marked up.  Stick a small cluster of sticky notes to the inside cover of the book so they are handy whenever you come across ideas, facts, and other information that should be noted. Jot down short details on the sticky note so that you will remember the page’s or section’s relevance.  When you are ready to write your report or study for an exam, you can easily skim back through the book using the sticky notes.
  • 25. What’s the Big Idea?  Look at the worksheet on page 27.  You can quickly make a synopsis of the book or chapter you are studying by identifying the main idea.  First, write down what you think the main idea is.  Then, focus on the idea by narrowing sown the main point(s).  Finally, list the reasons why you thought this was the main idea of the book or chapter.
  • 26. What’s the Big Idea? What’s the big idea? What’s the Most Important Point(s) List the reasons why you thought this was the main idea of the book or chapter. Include relevant page numbers.
