Item 12: Note Taking Exercise Using Cornell Method
Hello, it’s good to meet you again.
What
is Cornell Method
The Cornell note taking system was developed at
Cornell University. The objective of this note taking system is to help student
with the note taking skills. It can help us to summarize the page of the notes
and recall the topic on that note page.
How
To Do Cornell Style
In order to take note using Cornell Method we need to follow few steps to get our note book ready.
1. We
need to use 8
2. Divide
the page with two columns. The left one
need to be
3. The
other column should be about 6 inches. At the top of that column is where we
want to rite date, topic or name
4. Take

column as Summary.
5. Walla!
We are ready to go.
So that is how our note page will look like. Actually,
I already use this method to take lecturers note during classes. I want to share

All of these map shapes tell us that there are no
limited styles to draw our notes. We can use different colors too to make our
mind maps look nice. It is on your creativity.
So that is all from me for this post. I have shown
you how to do Cornell method note taking and mind mapping based on the text. I really
hope that it is advantageous for all of us to make our learning session better.
Thank you for spending your time on my blog. Goodbye!
