Record – During the lecture, in the right body column, record as many
meaningful facts and ideas as you can. Write legibly.
Reduce – As soon after lecture as possible, summarize these facts and ideas
concisely in the question column. This clarifies meanings and allows students to
connect objective with contents of notes to develop higher level questions.
Recite – cover notes, using only your questions, say over the facts and ideas of
the lecture as fully as you can using your own words. Then write a summary to
bring it all together.
Reflect – Draw out opinions from your notes and use them as a starting point for
your own reflections on the topic, try to apply information to your life and how it
relates to prior topics. This aids in remembering information.
Review – Spend 10 minutes every week in quick review of your notes and you
will retain most of what you have learned.
