pianoandstudy: I write notes in similar ways for all three of my subjects: maths, economics and history. In this post you’ll see an example for each of my subjects and an explanation of how, when and why I take notes for each subject. My general principles are to space them out so you can revise from them, use two colours, make them neat and contain only relevant information. Economics: I take notes for Economics at the end of each chapter in the textbook and write them using online websites (linked in my How to Study: Economics masterpost), my textbook and my class notes. I write key words in a different colour using a Staedtler Triplus Fineliner. I draw graphs where possible as I’m a visual learner. I try to space things out a bit more (as is on the right sheet of paper) so it’s easier to revise from. Maths: As detailed in my How to Study: Maths masterpost, I make notes to consolidate my understanding of maths and create an easy resource with examples for me to look at in the future. I draw graphs, diagrams and write examples down where possible and write important equations in a different colour. I write these notes at the end of each chapter in my textbook. History: As history is the subject with the most content to learn and the least amount of graphs, it’s harder to make these notes pleasing to the eye so I try to use more colour and keep the amount of words on each line to the bare minimum. For example, on the right sheet of paper I’ve tried to limit the amount of words on each line so the page doesn’t look so full. However unfortunately sometimes this isn’t possible, as is on the left sheet of paper where there is lots of information to write down. I write these notes again at the end of each chapter in the textbook. I hope you enjoyed reading this post and do let me know if you have any further questions or comments about how I write notes and study! -- source link
