Description
Note-Taking Made Easy by Judi Kesselman-Turkel and Franklynn Peterson is a practical guide to effective note-taking. It explains why taking your own notes is essential for achieving good grades, and provides clear instructions on how to determine what's worth noting during lectures, discussions, or from reading. The book covers two successful methods of organizing notes: outlining and patterning, and offers shortcuts to make note-taking easier, including shorthand devices and abbreviations. It also provides guidance on taking notes from texts, fiction and nonfiction, as well as handling charts, graphs, and photos. A final chapter shows how to tie together notes from various sources, helping you to integrate your research and study skills into a cohesive approach.
