Cornell note-taking system was invented by Walter Burke and others to help students take notes effectively. Cornell note-taking system divides a page into three parts: the left quarter (clue column) and the lower fifth (abstract) and the largest space on the right (draft).
Cornell note system divides a page into three parts:
The biggest space on the upper right is where we usually take notes. You just need to take notes according to your usual habits.
The vertical space on the left is called "clue column", which is used to summarize the content on the right and write some outlines. This job should not be done while taking notes, but to review immediately after class and then write all the main points on the left, so that on the one hand, review the content immediately, on the other hand, sort out the clues.
The following column is used for summarizing, that is, summarizing the contents recorded on this page in one or two sentences. This work can be delayed a little, which can promote your thinking and digestion, and it is also the extreme concentration and sublimation of notes.
