2 Cornell note taking stimulates critical thinking skills. Note taking helps students remember what is said in class. A good set of notes can help students work on assignments and prepare for tests outside of the classroom.

5 First & Last Name Class Title Period Date Topic Questions, Subtitles, Headings, Etc. Class Notes A 3 to 4 sentence summary across the bottom, in the Summary section. 2 1/2”

6 In the large, right hand column, students take notes like they normally would. They may use any style of note-taking: outline format, narrative format, symbols, short hand, etc.

7 Students then compare notes with a partner after class. They talk about what they wrote and why. Each looks for gaps & missed info. Both partners should feel free to add to their notes.

8 With their partner(s), students create questions in the left hand column. These questions should elicit critical thinking skills. (Costa’s level two and three questions).
