This is my 100th blog. A nice omen to cross. This time I would want to tell you about how to make notes. Note taking is a substitute for not keeping things in memory. It also serves you better in case you have to increase your comprehension. Text books, lectures, meetings etc all need proper note taking. There are many forms of note taking. They are all diagrams meant for different kinds of note taking.
Few of them are linear note taking like sentence note taking or paragraph note taking. Some people even reserve key words and use them in mind maps. I have found mind maps to be seriously flawed because it needs too much of coloring, and organization of space. At the end it looses its flavour and becomes a mess. Coming to linear note taking. Note taking can never be linear most of the times. A good note taker is always looking for key words and cues that will make him understand things later.
Keep your note taking skills high enough and you will never complaint both as a student and as an employee.
Adieu!
