i) You should choose only the main points of what you are reading or listening to. Do not record
all the materials from your source.
ii) Show the difference between main points, supporting points and examples. This can be done
by use of highlighting through the use of colors, underlining or using various types of font or
bolding for different aspects of your notes.
iii) Listen, read or watch closely the source of notes while carefully thinking about the subject
and decide which part of source material are most useful, then put them down in your own words
as your notes.
iv). Brevity is important in taking notes. Use abbreviations wherever possible. You could also
achieve brevity by adopting mathematical symbols or devise your own personal code of symbols
and signs.
