Taking Notes

What are some ways to be a good reader of information? Skimming/scanning material Looking for key words Noticing bold, italic and underlined words Be aware of headlines Pay attention to pictures, diagrams, and tables

Note-taking Strategies ABC-LOU Abbreviations Bullets Caveman Language Lists One word for several Use your own words

Abbreviations Shorten words when writing Use them when you are taking notes Examples: l

Bullets Example Bullet List Foods/Drinks of the Romans: Pizza Olives Tomatoes Wine

Caveman Language Do not take the time to write complete sentences. Only write down important words and go back later to make it complete in your own words.

Lists We all make lists: Grocery lists To do lists Vacation/Packing lists When doing research you can also make lists: Lists of countries the Romans conquered Lists of weapons used by the Romans

One Word for Several (Paraphrase) How to: Reread the passage until you understand it. Set the original aside, and write your paraphrase. Check your version with the original to make sure that it accurately expresses all the important information, but in a new form. Record the source (including the page #) in your notes so that you can credit it easily or go back and find needed information.

Use Your Own Words Similar to Paraphrasing: Read the information through, Without looking at the original material, write your own version Change words that are difficult to words you understand Note: You still need to cite the information
