Putting It In Writing:

Note-taking For Lectures

• Do you have a difficult time taking useful lecture notes?
• Do you have a find it difficult to know what to write and how much of the lecture to take down?
• Do you remember what was discussed in a class lecture?

Did you know that research on memory shows that average college students forget what they heard about 20 minutes after a lecture?  Based on that, how much will you remember after three or four weeks of class when you begin to prepare for an exam?  Practicing good study habits, including lecture note-taking, will help you master information and improve your overall test scores.  This workshop will discuss several common note-taking mistakes, and provides techniques for recording, organizing, and reviewing important information given during a lecture.
