time allotted for each speaker.
* Finally, indicate an approximate length for
the meeting so that participants can plan the
rest of their day.

A picture always
reinforces the concept
Images reveal large amounts of data,
so remember: use an image instead of
long texts. Your audience will
appreciate that
“
Words full of wisdom that
someone important said and
can make the reader get
inspired.”
—Someone famous
● Verbatim -Court reporting. Word for
word
● Resolution
Main conclusion that is reached at
Not discussion for AGMs and Statutory
meetings Note exact wording of any
resolution passed
● Narration
Concise summary of all the discussion
Past tense and reporting speech
Types
Tasks Involved
• Taking rough notes during your meetings.
• Writing up these notes neatly or typing
them out.
• Copying and distributing them to relevant
people.
• Keeping all minutes together in a file for
future reference.
What should you write
down?
• Don’t try to write everything down – it’s
impossible and not useful.
• Concentrate on WHAT has been decided
and WHO is going to do it. These are the
most important things to have records of.
• Don’t worry about producing the perfect
minutes – it’s not a test or a competition.
Writing rough notes
• The rough notes you take at the meeting
need to be clear enough for you to make
sense of them when you come to write
them up! The following things can help:
• Start the page with the name of your
group, date and place of meeting.
• Always put an underlined heading for
each separate item.
Writing rough notes
• Leave a few lines space between one item
and the next, so you have room to add other
points if the discussion comes back to it later
in the meeting.
• Underline or highlight decisions and who
has agreed to do what.
• Remember that the minutes need to be
understood by someone who wasn’t at the
meeting, so you need to give a bit of
background. • For example, ‘the people in
NTU were disgusted by the rubbish in the
street’ rather than • ‘they all thought it was
disgusting’.
Writing Minutes
The most important thing is to write the minutes up quickly. Don’t put
the job off for weeks - it makes a huge difference if the meeting is still
fresh in your mind.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. A meeting takes place when people come together (whether for work, clubs, sports, school, volunteer organizations, etc.) for a purpose.
  2. Show slide three and pose these discussion questions to the class: o What was the last meeting that you attended? o What made that meeting satisfying/unsatisfying? Let students discuss the questions briefly with a partner before sharing their answers with the group. Student answers will likely include problems such as no set time frame for the Hart 2 meeting, no agenda or plan, lack of participation, etc. Highlight these answers since they connect with the larger points covered in this lesson.
