10.2.1 Study Skills
Note Making
Making notes effectively involves summarizing and organizing information in a way that is
clear, concise, and useful for future reference. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to
make notes:
1. Determine the Purpose: Understand why you are making the notes. Are you
summarizing a lecture, studying for an exam, researching a topic, or capturing ideas for a
project?
2. Choose the Format: Decide whether you'll be making handwritten or digital notes.
Choose a format that suits your preferences and allows for easy organization and
accessibility.
3. Use Headings and Subheadings: Organize your notes with clear headings and
subheadings to categorize different topics or sections. This helps you quickly locate
specific information later.
4. Be Selective: Focus on capturing key points, main ideas, and essential details rather
than trying to write down everything. Use abbreviations, symbols, or bullet points to
condense information while retaining its meaning.
6. 5. Paraphrase and Summarize: Use your own words to paraphrase information instead
of copying verbatim. Summarize lengthy passages or complex concepts into concise,
digestible points.
6. Visual Aids: Incorporate diagrams, charts, graphs, or illustrations to visually
represent information and enhance understanding. Visual aids can be especially
helpful for visual learners.
7. Highlight Important Information: Use highlighting, underlining, or bolding to
emphasize crucial points or concepts. This makes it easier to review and study key
information later.
8. Make Connections: Draw connections between different ideas, concepts, or topics
within your notes. Linking related information helps reinforce understanding and aids
in retention.
9. Review and Revise: Regularly review your notes to reinforce learning and ensure
accuracy. Revise and update your notes as needed, adding new information or
clarifying unclear points.
10. Personalize Your Notes: Tailor your note-taking style to suit your learning
preferences and organizational habits. Experiment with different techniques until
you find what works best for you.
7. LESSON 2
Read the given text on art and identify the key points
Art is the mirror reflecting the essence of human expression, transcending boundaries
and speaking the language of the soul. Through strokes of color, chiseled sculptures, or
melodic compositions, it captures the spectrum of human emotion and experience. Art
inspires, provokes thought, and connects us to our shared humanity. It invites us to see
the world through new perspectives, evoking joy, contemplation, or introspection.
Whether adorning museum walls, gracing city streets, or nestled in the pages of a
sketchbook, art enriches our lives, stimulates our imagination, and reminds us of the
beauty that surrounds us.
