TAKING LECTURE NOTES

Last Wednesday on 11th July 2017,  Madam Normala was in charged of the UED class. The topic was "Taking Lecture Notes (Topic 6)". Actually I was looking forward to be in her class because some of my friends from other classes said that she was dabomb! And yeah, she was amazing. I'm sure that "AKU BIMBANG" is her trademark ahahahahha!


TAKING LECTURE NOTES

Have you ever thought why do we take lecture notes? Madam Normala told us some of the reasons. Let me tell you why. I bet 4 is enough isn't it?

  • To be a active listener
  • Accurate record of information
  • To interpret, condense and organize information
  • For repetition of material

 How to take lecture notes? I mean the effective way, so that it will be easier for us to read. There are two ways;-




A) PREPARE BEFORE TAKING NOTES


  • Read before class  
                 - Build up background
                 - Have an idea what the lecture is about
                 - Identify the main idea
                 
  • Get ready to take notes as you walk into the classroom
  • Sit in front


B) BECOME ACTIVE LISTENER

  • Read before lecture
  • Sit in the lecturer's line of vision
  • Decide what to listen
  • Control emotional responses

Have you ever heard about cornell systems of taking notes? This is the best way for you guys to make it organized.

So far all of the UED classes are going very well. I hope that it will be the same for the last 2 classes or else 'Aku bimbang' before the interim session end hehe!
