Taking Lecture Notes Presented by Moorpark College Writing Center

The Process of Note-Taking 1. Observe 2. Record 3. Review

Observe Instructor:  Tone of voice  Leading words  Pauses  Body language  Teaching Style Self:  Energy level  Attention  Prior knowledge  Emotional reactions  Learning Style

Observing the Instructor What is on the board? Body Language? What clues does the instructor give? Leading Words?

Observing Self Am I kinesthetic? Am I auditory? Am I Visual? I learn by seeing I learn by talking and listening I learn by doing

Record Key Words Image prompting Mapping Cornell Method Summarize/ Paraphrase Outline

Example of Key Words Note-Taking 3 step process Observe Record review

Example of Image Prompting Note-Taking = Observe  Record  Review

Example of Cornell: This is not really a preferred method. Given the idea of seeing the “connections”, why do you think this isn’t so great? Observe Record Review Observe the teacher: Body language, clues, teaching style Observe self: learning style, attention Select a method that works for the course, the instructor and for me. Within 24 hours, go over notes, look for “unknowns” And then make it real (visual, auditory, kinesthetic)

Example of a Summarizing Method Taking notes requires watching and listening actively, Writing down what is important, and then making it real. Need to take the Learning Styles Inventory. “Education is a process not a product,” Kathryn Adams

Example of Mapping Note- Taking ObserveRecordReview

Check for Accuracy: Compare notes with other students; compare notes to text; ask questions at office hours Organize: Fill in missing links; create a map of associated topics Synthesize: Look at the context of the class (the Big Picture) Make it Real: Talk about it. Act upon it. Apply it to experience. See it in your world.
