3. Note making method There are various methods for taking notes, and the best one often depends on personal preference and the situation. Here are some popular note-taking methods: Cornell method Divide your paper into three sections: a narrow column on the left for cues or questions, a wider column on the right for notes, and a section at the bottom for summarizing key points. Outline method Organize notes hierarchically, using bullet points or numbers to denote main topics and subtopics. Sentence method Write notes in complete sentences, summarizing key points or ideas in your own words. 3

4. Make notes legible Write Clearly Focus on writing each letter and word neatly. Take your time, especially when writing quickly can lead to messy handwriting. Use Adequate Space Avoid cramming too much information into a small space. Leave room between lines and around the margins to make your notes easier to read. Organize information Use headings, bullet points, or numbers to clearly delineate different sections or topics in your notes. This helps you and others understand the structure of your notes at a glance. Write in blocks Instead of writing in long continuous lines, break up your notes into shorter, manageable blocks of text. This makes it easier for your eyes to track and understand the information. 4

Main idea Focus on capturing the main ideas, key points, and supporting details during lectures, readings, or research. Avoid writing down every word verbatim, as this can lead to information overload. Highlight Use highlighting, underlining, or annotations to mark important points, key terms, or questions. This will draw your attention to critical information and make it easier to review later. Multimedia If appropriate, supplement your notes with multimedia elements such as diagrams, charts, or audio recordings. This can provide additional context and help reinforce your understanding of the material. 5

Supporting details Supporting details provide evidence or explanation for main points. Identify them in your notes, but prioritize capturing the main idea they support.
