Presentation transcript:

Happy Monday! Please get out a sheet of paper and set it up like the example on the board.

Outcomes Student will… (1)learn how to take Cornell notes and develop listening skills, and (2) students will practice these skills in class.

Looking Ahead You should be half way through your book by Wednesday. You will have a SUMMATIVE discussion on Wednesday. YOU MUST HAVE DISCUSSION PREP. IF you are absent tomorrow, you MUST me or check the website for the prep! NO prep=no discussion=zero 2x in grade book! If you are absent Wednesday, you will have to write a 3 page paper for makeup.

Imagine this…

Why does this happen? 1)Students don’t know how to study. 2)Students don’t know how to take very good notes.

Why take notes? 1)listening & concentration 2)active vs. passive listener 3)recognize main ideas 4)info not found else where. 5)valuable clues for what instructor thinks is important. 6)processing information every day.

THE CORNELL NOTE TAKING SYSTEM

Step 1: Layout Question Column --2 Inches-- After the lecture, –write questions in this column for each main point in the record column. Record Column --6 Inches-- Record patterns of main idea and support in your own words when possible. Use indentations to show the relationships between main ideas and –support.

Record Column Write main ideas and supporting material in the right column – Use signals from the lecture Titles & keywords= topics  main ideas “Transition” words/phrases introduce details –First, most, some, this is called, there are two types –Use abbreviations to get the full idea. –Leave spaces between ideas so you can fill in more later. see how ideas relate to one another

Question Column Write questions in the left column of your notes to quiz yourself on the material. –Write questions in the question column on the same line as the item the question addresses in the record column –Write a question for each new Topic Main idea Significant detail –Write questions for details on which you think your professor will quiz you.

Step 2: Notetaking Tips  Keep a separate notebook or binder for each course.  Notes for each lecture should begin on a new page.  Date and number all pages.  Never use a sentence when you can use a phrase, or a phrase when you can use a word.

Paraphrasing and Summarizing: the difference between the two Write this down! ParaphraseSummarize Put in your own words, own voice Main ideas and details of original text Main ideas only Same level of detail as original Less detail than original Roughly same length as original (maybe a little shorter) Much shorter—1/4 length of original

 Use indentations to distinguish between major and minor points.  Put most notes in your own words, except  formulas, definitions, and specific facts  Use abbreviations and symbols wherever possible.  If you completely don’t understand an idea,  leave a blank space and ask your professor for help on it. Notetaking Tips, Cont.

Tips to help you write faster when taking notes w/ with b4 before p. page w/o without + plus = equal # number - minus ^ increasing v decreasing > greater than < less than ect. and so forth Q question % percent ff following 2 to, too, two vs versus c/o care of lb pound

 Develop a code system of note-marking to indicate questions, comments, important points …for example,  Mark unfamiliar vocabulary & unclear ideas in unique ways  Highlight vocabulary in pink.  Circle ideas that are still unclear  Make sure you can understand what you have written and if needed, make corrections.  Use drawings, arrows or other organizers to help you see concepts and relationships between them Notetaking Tips, Cont.

Third Step: Quiz Yourself Answer your questions in the left column. –Cover the Record Column. –Read your questions in the Question Column –Using your own words, answer your questions out loud. –Uncover your notes and check what you have said against the facts. This will help transfer ideas to your long-term memory!

Step Four: Review Review to improve your memory. –If you spend 10 minutes every week or so in a quick review of your notes, you will retain most of what you have studied you won’t have to cram during an “all-nighter” you will relate the facts and ideas to present lectures or readings.

Example In the “Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” there are four main characters – including one that may not really exist. The first and most important character is Ichabod Crane. He is an ambitious schoolteacher, who hopes to marry the second character, Katrina Van Tassel. Katrina is the beautiful daughter of a wealthy farmer. The third character is Brom Bones. He is Ichabod’s rival for Katrina, and he is also well known for his practical jokes. The fourth and final character is the frightening, ghostly figure of the Headless Horseman, who terrifies Ichabod into running away. But Irving strongly hints that this might simply be another of the characters in disguise.

What do your Cornell Notes look like?

Here are the notes: 1 st character? Job? Interest? 2 nd character? Description? 3 rd character? Interested in? Likes what? 4 th character Real or not? Scares who? Might be who? The Legend of Sleepy Hollow – 4 Main Characters 1.Ichabod Crane Most important School teacher Wants to marry Katrina 2.Katrina Van Tassel Beautiful daughter of wealthy farmer 3.Brom Bones Also wants to marry Katrina Well known for practical jokes 4.Headless Horseman Scary ghost Scares Ichabod away Might be another character [Brom?] in disguise

Example of questions to put in RIGHT column. As you listen, put answers in the LEFT column. How has the world changed (since the 1900s)? What are preconceived ideas? Why are we ignorant? How do we cure our ignorance? How can we change and be successful? Why is this important?

Exit Slip What were 2 reasons why we are ignorant about the world? How can we cure our ignorance and be successful? If you could ask these speakers a question about their presentation, what would you ask?

The End!
