11 How’s about having a go? Take notes on today’s topics Either Take notes in the main area and highlight key points in the margin as you go along Or Write key points in the margin first and fill in the detail as you go along Or just write the detail, leaving the margin to be filled when you review or revise from your notes at a later date Or Just write the key points in the margin, writing the detail when you have more time or a text book to hand. Note taking is a skill and will improve with practise. 11
