More  E·ffi·cient·  and  E·ffec·tive·  Note-Ta·king·  in  Lec·tures· 
Some ^ peo·ple·  take  co·pi·ous·  notes  in  lec·tures· , yet  rare·ly·  read  o·ver·  them  a·gain· ^. They ^ take  the  notes  in  the  first  place  be·cause·  they ^ a·ssume·  that  wri·ting·  some·thing· ^ down  will  help  them  re·mem·ber·  it . This  can  in·deed·  help  if  you ^ are  pro·ce·ssing·  the  in·for·ma·tion·  at  the  same  time , but  just  o·pe·ra·ting·  like  a  dic·ta·ting·  ma·chine·  is  coun·ter·pro·duc·tive·  be·cause·  of ^ the  stress  it  puts  you ^ un·der· , and  be·cause·  you ^ don't  have  time  to  think  care·fu·lly·  a·bout·  what  the  lec·tu·rer·  is  say·ing· . You ^ may  e·ven·  write  down  the  wrong  thing  from  time  to  time .

We  can  show  you ^ how  to  do ^ a·ppro·pri·ate·  pre·pa·ra·tion·  which  will  e·na·ble·  you ^ to  re·duce·  the  num·ber·  of ^ notes  you ^ take  sub·stan·tia·lly· , yet  you ^ will  learn  far  more  du·ring·  each  lec·ture· . You ^ will  be·come· ^ a  pro-ac·tive·  lear·ner·  so  you ^ will  be  a·ble·  to  do ^ less  work  and  get  be·tter·  marks .

On  a  me·cha·ni·cal·  le·vel· , ta·king·  notes  in  lec·tures·  can  be  ve·ry·  di·ffi·cult·  be·cause·  it  is  hard  to  write  at  the  speed  peo·ple·  talk . And  if  you ^ are  not  a·ble·  to  write  le·gi·bly·  at  speed , you ^ will  have  trou·ble·  rea·ding·  your  notes  la·ter·  on . Some ^ peo·ple·  e·ven·  get  pain  in  their ^ hand  or  arm  which  can  cause  long  term  phy·si·cal·  pro·blems· . It  takes  a·bout·  6  le·ssons·  to  change  to  a  flu·ent·  and  le·gi·ble·  cur·sive·  hand·wri·ting·  style .
