How I Take Notes for Different Subjects

how to find information and create study notes using a specific topic

Re: Week 6 - Discussion Forum by Pearson Ashby - Tuesday, 21 May 2024, 9:49 PM Note Taking Methods The note-taking method I chose for this assignment is The Cornell Method. Developed by Professor Walter Pauk at Cornell University in the 1950s, this method assists students with quality note-taking during lectures and aids with studying for exams. This method suits my personality and works best for my learning style. As we learnt at the beginning of this course, quality notes can be the difference between a good grade and a failing one. The Cornell Method employs a header, cue column, note column, and summary column to provide structure and organization to the notes during the lecture. Students can then condense the notes into key points after class. This is great for studying, revision, self-quizzing, interactions with other students on the topic, and identifying knowledge gaps. The versatility of the Cornell method easily allows notes to be taken on a laptop or by hand. However, you should opt for handwritten notes since your mind is engaged in active learning techniques with the course materials, causing you to think about what you want to write. Typing bends towards the passive state of mind, as it is easier to reproduce what you are hearing. The Cornell method is more versatile for presentations and lectures when compared to other note-taking methods like the Outline and Write-on-Slides methods. These methods are most effective when an Outline or PowerPoint presentation is provided to the audience beforehand. The Mind Mapping and The Flow Method are better for essay planning or brainstorming, but not recommended for recording large amounts of data. Even though conditions may dictate which of the methods works best, anyone can easily apply the Cornell Method to any note-taking occasion.
