1. The presentation must not be at least 5 minutes and not more than 7.
2. The presentation will aim to discuss these questions: >> INTRO
a. What skill/s did your group members pick, and why did you choose it/them? The
range of skills you can choose are listed below. Each strategy should be used by
at least one member of the group:
i. Listening - Cornell Method
ii. Listening - Mind Mapping
iii. Reading - SQ3R
iv. Reading - Outlining
v. Reading - Marking & Annotating
b. What courses and materials did you apply these techniques to?
c. How easy/difficult did you find the strategies to use?
d. What problems did you face while using the strategy?
e. Which strategies, overall, do you believe are most effective for your group?
(Choose one of the two listening strategies and two of the reading strategies).
Why?
f. How can you improve your strategy usage? >> Closing

Intro
Have you ever wondered how you can take notes effectively either when you are in
attending a class or a meeting? There are many different methods waiting for you to select,
today we will try to discuss and find the best method for you by describing our experiences of
using different kinds of notes taking methods in many different classes as well as discussing
some problems we encountered when using each note-taking method. Finally, we will end with
our group’s opinion of the best note-taking methods.

Cornell
Cornell Method is a great method for comparing notes for different kinds of lectures,
reviews and summaries. This method helps us to memorize the content better since you are
able jot down the main ideas, keywords or any kinds of questions that you might encounter on
the left-side. For this time we tried using this method on the GTS123 class which is about
computers and programming. This kind of method suits those who are left-brain dominant,
which is people who prefer sequential, also we highly recommend this method for subjects with
a lot of content and details since it is helpful for organizing and grouping all kinds of information.

Mindmap
This method is suitable for the overview and the connection of the details. It breaks down
the information into small pieces in order to make it easier to understand. It is highly
recommended for everyone since from our own experience this method could help in making an
overview and could actually help you remember the topics and subtopics in subjects like biology
which has so much associated information. However, this method would be less useful in
subjects which are similar to mathematics since its information is not quite related to each other.

SQ3R
The SQ3R method is a very effective method to learn with a high quality result, provided
that you have time to do each step effectively. There's plenty of steps from surveying,
questioning, reading, reciting, and reviewing, so it requires an amount of time to complete. With
so many steps sometimes SQ3R method can cause confusion too. This method helps better
when you have spare time to study slowly and it isn’t suitable for those who are in tight time,
such as when you are crunching on exams. But if you have a plenty of time to spare, SQ3R
method is a very great tool to build a steady foundation.

Outline - Formal, Informal

For formal outlines, it helps organize information logically and capture key points
precisely. For the experience, the format is very useful to review and retain information in
various kinds of situations such as lecturing, meeting, reading and summarizing texts.
Personally, it is a useful tool to use in taking notes during the lecture. This method is
recommended for people who prefer a structure and organized note-taking.
 For informal outlines, it is easier to do and manage than mind mapping which needs a lot
of space management. For experience, it is inconvenient to take a separate note in the class
when you could write directly in the slide and it is not suitable if the lecture has a lot of diagrams
and comparison. However, this method might be useful in making a rough outline to get the
overall idea before and after attending the class. Highly recommended for those who like the
sense of lists and orders.

Marking and Annotating

Marking and Annotating is a simple and suitable method when you read the textbooks
and encounter a large amount of text in the form of a paragraph or passage. It could help in
grouping the same type of keywords together and breaking down the information so it will be
easier to understand and read. It is also highly recommended since it could help make the text
you read clearer.

Discussing problem and choose the best method for our group
1. Cornell method
○ Have less space to take notes
○ A bit too systematic for right-brain dominant
○ The note can look disorganized
2. Mind Mapping
○ Information might not always connect to each other
○ not suitable for subjects with dense and have a lot of information
○ Can be hard to read and navigate
○ need to manage space effectively to get a nice mindmap
3. SQ3R
○ Take a lot of steps
○ Not suitable for people who don’t have time
4. Outlining
○ Some information isn’t suitable to be displayed in list format
○ A formal outline can be hard to use as a note-taking method in class
○ Informal outline can be chaotic and messy
5. Marking & Annotating
○ Can be chaotic if you are not being consistent
○ Can’t be used in a borrowed book

OUR Group Choice of the note-taking method

After all types of note taking that we had experienced, we think the Cornell, Outlining
and Marking and Annotate Method would be the method that we prefer to use since most of us
are left-brain dominant
Closing

Every note-taking and reading strategy has its own strengths and it is suitable for
different types of people. For example, Outlining is suitable for those who like orders and logical
things. Mind Mapping is suitable for those who like an overview and connecting the information
together. However, the strategies you use to take notes could be more than one so you could
combine those strategies together to improve or find the best way to use the strategies. We
suggest you use our experience as a guide and try experimenting with these strategies yourself.
We wish you all a happy note-taking experience. Thankyou.
