Note Making
Note Making
Notes are short written record of facts to aid the memory. Notes are usually taken to record a
speech or dictation while listening to it or after reading a book, magazine or article. They are
referred back whenever needed and may be reproduced in the desired way.
Note-Form
While making notes the whole information is listed in note-form in points only. Notes should not
be written in complete sentences as we can’t remember the whole information. So only the
main points are listed one under the other and numbered.
It implies the logical division and sub-division of the listed information by using figures, letters,
dashes and spaces.
All examples and figurative speeches are eliminated.
Conclusion
Note-making is a useful skill. You must develop it with constant practice. Notes form an
essential part of your academic life and will serve you well in your School/Board examinations.
