Reviewing Notes
Reviewing notes is a continual process that involves:
Gathering captured notes
Highlighting key points
Clarifying information and filling in details
Correcting errors or rewriting illegible sentences/paragraphs
Sometimes it's helpful to distinguish between
note-taking
and
note-making
Note-making can be viewed as an active process that involves:
Reviewing notes
Synthesizing/connecting ideas
Synthesizing/connecting ideas
This involves combining related notes, clustering or connecting related ones, and linking to other materials (articles, quotes from books, videos, etc.)
