WHY take notes😢

• Helps us to pay attention in class - When we take a note, we will pay attention to the lecturer so that it will helps us to focus in the class
• Helps us to study for quiz,tests and final exam- Usually the questions come from the lecturer notes
• Helps us to improve our memory- So that we can remember in long-time memory
• Helps us to take ownership of ideas- We can elaborate the point with our own words.
• Helps us to engage our sense
• Helps us organize and process data and information
• Helps the lecturers test students on how well they captured given information

Why review notes?

1. We lose 80% of what we hear if it is not reviewed within a few hours
2. Identify any questions for peers , the next class or ask the professor
3. There is not enough time to absorb all the information given in class if it is not reviewed on a regular basis
4. Think: "If I were tested on this lecture tomorrow, would I ace it?" Make it so!
