Copying everything off the board, or power point slides laboriously in your register/notebook isn’t the smartest way to study, and learn new things. What is required is a smarter way of making notes and going over them. The below technique of note-taking capitalizes on the proven methods of memory retention.
Hajvery University (HU) urges students, across all faculties, to employ the following studying and note-taking method as it is extremely efficient, and beneficial, if implemented according to the attached template.
This semester make your notes and study according to this method, view the attached template for visual understanding.
The Cornell Note taking Method
The Cornell method provides a systematic format for condensing and organizing notes without laborious recopying. After writing the notes in the main space, use the left-hand space to label each idea and detail with a keyword or “cue.”

Method
Rule your paper with a 2 ½ inch margin (see template) on the left leaving a six-inch area on the right in which to make notes. During class, take down information in the six-inch area. When the instructor moves to a new point, skip a few lines. After class, complete phrases and sentences as much as possible. For every significant bit of information, write a cue in the left margin. To review, cover your notes with a card, leaving the cues exposed. Say the cue out loud, then say as much as you can of the material underneath the card. When you have said as much as you can, move the card and see if what you said matches what is written. If you can say it, you know it.
Advantages
Organized and systematic for recording and reviewing notes. Easy format for pulling out major concept and ideas. Simple and efficient. Saves time and effort. “Do-it-right-in-the-first-place” system.
Disadvantages
None
When to Use
In any lecture situation.

I enjoy you because of all of your effort on this web site. It has been an idea for me. I’ve passed this onto a buddy of mine.
Very good blog but remember note taking is not easy during a lecture when you will be writing, reading (off the board) and listening and trying to understand what the prof is saying and make sense of all this, i think recording audio (as in form of audio lectures) or even better video lectures of the same can be of great help, something very popular in western universities.
I have found great ideas on this site and I will bookmark it for later.
