note taking

Post Reply New Topic

I don't really like taking notes, though they can be kind of helpful sometimes. When I have taken notes I usually just write down a few key phrases/events/facts/points and will list anything relevant to them like dates, locations or little details that might be hard to remember. So they are very minimal, I tend to retain most information but can get mixed up on specific details or forget them...and looking at the minimal notes usually helps me remember anything I need to.

As for handwriting I write pretty small, I try to write bigger on tests and things since people have complained of having a hard time seeing it. But I do write very clear letters it actually gets a bit more sloppy when I try and make them larger and easier to see.

I take notes on my Kindle Fire with a wireless keyboard. I have accommodations for this through the special services department at my college. Taking notes electronically really helps me.

Wow interesting images. . . .

My note taking style is a poor attempt at being neat. My notes have flying letters and numbers. Sometimes they crowd into each other; sometimes they go out of the lines. At times like these I wish it were acceptable to bring iPads into my classes so they could look more neat.
