1. The Cornell note-taking system
First, divide the page into three parts: one narrow column on the left side, one wide column on the right side, and one section at the bottom part of the page.
Write your notes in the right column of the page. That’s your note-taking column.
As soon as possible after the lecture is over, use the left column to create questions for every part of the notes. That’s your cue column.
When this task is completed, write a short summary in the bottom section of each page.
That’s it! Congratulations!
2. T-notes method
Just divide a page into 2 parts. One part is for writing down terms, equations, formulas and theories. The other part is for definitions, examples, evidence and proof.
3. Mind map method
Write down the main idea in the center of the page. Then draw “branches” every time you need to add a sub-topic or a detail to your scheme. At the end of the lecture you’ll have a detailed flow chart of the content you listened to.
4. Flow note-taking method
A flow-based note-taking method is the most effective way to take notes if you are a fast learner.
The principle of the flow note-taking technique is to represent the ideas you hear using textual and visual information recorded on the page.
The flow note-taking method includes a lot of tables, schemes, arrows, points, offshoots – anything that helps you to represent your “mental model.”
