Reflection on note-taking

While doing our brief activity on note-taking today based on Jean Killbourne's speech, I learnt a new tip on improving my note-taking.

I noticed how another learner used indents and it is shown in this example:

kdfnskgdfh.gh;fkh;jkhgjgk;j;kjk

  1. gmngkgnlkh
  2. fkgkhfhlgjl
  3. mgnfnh,fm,f
By allowing a little margin on the side to introduce subpoints of a point, it makes notes a lot clearer and readable.

Also, setting aside a column on the left allows us to 'group' up quick notes after as it helps to provide space for smaller headings and subheadings. A column on the left would also make the notes look less packed and 'dense' and helps in terms of visual and spacial view.
