  3. Important Points about Taking Textbook Notes Your goal is to create a comprehensive set of notes that you can use to learn, rehearse, and review textbook information. The majority of your study time will be spent reading and working with textbook information. Studying from notes is more efficient than rereading chapters. Hholdorf.wordpress.com

  4. Essential Strategies for Textbook Notetaking • Understanding what you read is the starting point. • Be selective. • Experiment with different forms of note taking but then: • Use a consistent structure in your notes. • Label your notes according to textbook chapter. • Use your notes for feedback. • Allot time in your study blocks to work with your notes.

  5. The Five R's of Cornell Record: Write headings and numbered notes in the right column. Reduce: Write key words and questions in the recall column (left column). Recite: Cover the right column. Recite from the left column. Reflect: Think about and work with information in new ways. Review: Use immediate and ongoing review. Hholdorf.wordpress.com

  9. Cornell: Reflect Step • Take time to think about your notes. • Line up your recall columns to see the structure of the chapter. • Write a summary at the bottom of your notes. • Make lists of information or questions on the back side of your notes. • Make study tools such as index cards, visual mapping, or pictures.

  14. The Index Card Notetaking System Hholdorf.wordpress.com

  15. Essential Strategies for Studying Index Card Notes • Carry your index study cards with you. • Use the cards for quizzing. • Use them as a warm-up activity at the beginning of a study block. • Study from the front side of your cards. • Study from the back side of your cards. • Sort the cards into two piles: the ones you now and the ones you need to study further. • Create reflect activities with your note cards.

  16. NEXT: The Formal Outline Note taking System • Highly structure, logically organized notes • Levels of information clear • Formal outlines show a skeleton of the printed information. • Use formal outlines to take notes before, during, or after reading. Hholdorf.wordpress.com

  17. Standard Formal Outline Format Indent and align items to show levels of information. Show at least two subtopics under each category. Use Roman numerals for main topics. Use Arabic numerals for supporting details. Use key words and short phrases throughout the outline. Hholdorf.wordpress.com

  18. Creating Formal Outlines Hholdorf.wordpress.com

  19. How to Study from Formal Outlines • Read one line or item at a time; explain by reciting. • Check your accuracy or completeness. • Add clue words to the right of the lines or items. • Repeat the process of reciting from the outline. • Use the outline to write a summary.
