NOTE-TAKING TIPS
Your notes are a reminder of what you learned in class. Taking good notes
can help you succeed in mathematics. The following tips will help you take
better classroom notes.
Before class, ask what your teacher will be discussing in class. Review
mentally what you already know about the concept.
Be an active listener. Focus on what your teacher is saying. Listen for
important concepts. Pay attention to words, examples, and/or diagrams
your teacher emphasizes.
Write your notes as clear and concise as possible. The following symbols
and abbreviations may be helpful in your note-taking.
Word or Phrase

Symbol or
Abbreviation

Word or Phrase

Symbol or
Abbreviation

for example

e.g.

not equal

such as

i.e.

approximately

with

w/

therefore

without

w/o

versus

vs

and

angle

Use a symbol such as a star () or an asterisk (*) to emphasis important


concepts. Place a question mark (?) next to anything that you do not
understand.
Ask questions and participate in class discussion.
Draw and label pictures or diagrams to help clarify a concept.
When working out an example, write what you are doing to solve the
problem next to each step. Be sure to use your own words.

Note-Taking Donts
Dont write every word. Concentrate on the main ideas and concepts.
Dont use someone elses notes as they may not make sense.
Dont doodle. It distracts you from listening actively.
Dont lose focus or you will become lost in your note-taking.
