Notetaker Training A brief training guide to serving as a notetaker for students who access services through the CLASS Office/Groves Computer Lab at Augsburg College CLASS Office Augsburg College

Thank you for agreeing to be a notetaker Your services are essential to students with disabilities – By taking notes, students can focus on the content of the lecture and not the notetaking process – These notes will be a valuable study aid for students

Will Include: – Viewing this PowerPoint for general notetaking information – Filling out contact information, position agreement, and privacy agreement forms – Receiving a tutorial on ing notes using the copy machine

Students may be eligible for a notetaker for many reasons – Students who are deaf or hard of hearing – Students who are blind or with low vision – Students with dexterity and/or motor skill difficulty – Students with learning disabilities – Students with ADHD

Be on time to class copies of your notes within 24 hours of your class in the CLASS Office/Groves Lab to both the student(s) you are taking notes for and the CLASS Office Find a substitute notetaker if you are going to be absent, late, or leave early If any concerns come up, let the CLASS Office/Groves Lab know

Confidentiality of the student is essential to this position – Maintain the confidentiality of the student – Maintain any information you receive about the student Please respect the wishes of the student(s) if they wish to remain anonymous By signing the confidentiality form you are entering an agreement to maintain confidentiality

On each set of notes the following information should be included: – Date – Course Number with Section (HIS 249A) – Name of Professor – Lecture Title – if applicable – Page Number On Every Page

Math and Science – Details and example as large part of notes Writing – Emphasize themes and textual evidence to support them History – Several dates and names which will be on test Art – Writing short descriptions of pieces of displayed art

Writing legibly Writing on one side of the paper Leaving enough white space in your notes – Top, bottom, margins, and skip lines Writing in blue or black ink Copying everything from the board Making reference to and/or making notes on handouts if necessary

Numbering/emphasizing important information – Do this by staring, highlighting, underlining, etc. important information Labeling what you are writing Listing information and explaining what it means Conveying the main idea

Have the assigned reading completed Write down main points down before class Remain objective; don’t put your opinion into the notes Use maps, charts, pictures, Venn diagrams, etc. to help illustrate your notes

Put announcements, assignments, references, other important information on the top of the page Use headings and subheadings Define new or difficult concepts Define unfamiliar vocabulary Put the notes in your own words

Write in detail but not word for word Make sure you include enough details but not too many to overwhelm the reader Put notes in your own words – Don’t write down the lecture verbatim – This can lead to wordiness and misunderstandings

Professors engage in small cues to let students know important information is coming – Repeating information – Writing on the board – Voices changes – louder or softer – Talking rate – faster or slower – Pointing – Hitting something for emphasis

Something important might be coming if the professor says one of these: Main Ideas: – “The main point is...” – “Remember this...” – “Here is the main point...” – “The uses are...”

Supporting Ideas: – “In addition...” – “Besides...” – “Additionally...” – “Note this...” – “Furthermore...” Conclusions: – “In conclusion...” – “Finally...”

Abbreviations are great to use – Write out the meaning the first time you use it – Be consistent when using them – If they are used frequently, abbreviate names or books titles – Use symbols in place of words (=, + <) – Use a “?” to denote a question – Circle or box information that goes together – Use arrows to show directions/change or process
