refined with practice. Writing a note card is
just the start. Using your notes well is what
makes you successful. As you use them

TO DEVELOP
NOTE TAKING AND
STUDY HABITS |
Take notes at every
opportunity. Use short
hand notations and
abbreviations to take
as
many as possible.
Use
the auto-correct
feature
to
automatically expand
abbreviations. Set
reminder cards to
review . These notes
at regular intervals. |
|
At regular schedules--
be it once a day, twice
a
week, etc.- retrieve
recently taken notes
and review them.
Rewrite them so they
are more readable in
the future and add
keywords for better
organization. |
|
Prepare filters for easy
retrieval at a later date
to
create workspaces
with
logical views of
your
notes for future
study.

TO PREPARE
LECTURE
NOTES |
Prepare note cards on
the topic of your
lecture
(if you are a
regular user, you
probably have these
cards from when you
read the source
material). Annotate
the note cards with the
time it will take to
cover the points in that
note. |
|
Start a project for the
lecture, and create the
outline -- "Opening
remarks", "Points to
cover," etc. Filter the
notes list to get the
notes you need and
drag / drop these on to
the lecture outline.
Organize the flow
of lecture and review
the time to cover the
material. |
|
When you are ready,
export and print the
lecture notes.
