The Cornell Note Taking Method
RECORD: During the lecture (or reading), record in the main column as many meaningful facts and ideas as you can. Write legibly.
REDUCE: As soon after as possible, summarize these facts and ideas concisely in the Cue Column. Summarizing clarifies meanings and relationships, reinforces continuity, and strengthens memory.
RECITE: Cover the Note Taking area, using only your jottings in the Cue Column. Summarizing clarifies meanings and relationships, reinforces continuity, and strengthens memory.
REFLECT: Draw out opinions from your notes and use them as a starting point for your own reflections on the course and how it relates to your other courses. Reflection will help prevent ideas from being inert and soon forgotten.
REVIEW: Spend 10 minutes every week in quick review of your notes, and you will retain most of what you have learned.
