Importance of note taking

I think note taking is an important key in order to be successful in class. In each class note taking may vary depending on the subject, teacher and the work that I am assigned. Almost all my classes require some note taking. Notes help me on homework and they also help me study for a test. I have a couple of lectures and in all of them not taking plays a big part. If I already know information about a subject it is still good for me to take notes, because my brain can refresh more and also I can help tutor other people that needs help.

There are many subject that I have taken throughout getting a great education. I personally feel like each class dealing with math, science, history and English should involve some note taking. When I got here to college I took my first dance class and realized I have to take notes in there just as well as any other class. It is important that I get every little note because if I miss one that could be a question on the test that decides whether I fail or pass. No matter how many notes I have to copy for a subject I am going to do it, because it will help me learn even better.

There are many teachers who like to make their notes short and there’re many teachers who like to make their notes long. In most of my lectures the teachers make the notes long because we usually only have the class twice or three times a week, so they try to fit in as much as possible. Many teachers like to explain or go in to details about the notes meanings, and that is real helpful to me. I dislike when the teachers do a PowerPoint on the notes, but they switch the slide to fast. Most of my Professors post the lecture and the PowerPoint on Blackboard just in class we miss class or was unable to get the notes. Teachers try to work their students by giving us an advantage with good notes.

Sometime I am assigned a bunch of work that I have no clue to do, but by me copying good notes I can look at them and find out how to do my homework or any other task with no problem. I take notes primarily to study for test and upcoming quizzes. When I have homework notes come in handy because the teacher is not around to help me. I use my notes to check over my work after I am done doing all of it to make sure I have done it correct. If you take good notes the work that come with it should be easy.

Note taking has saved me from having a lot of fs and 0s. There’re many ways that people like to take notes, but I prefer to get mines down on a sheet of paper the same way the teacher has them down on a sheet of paper.
