康奈尔笔记法(2)

fits together, in a general sense. The summary should be written in your own words helping you to own the information.

Note-Taking Area The space to the right of the vertical margin is where you actually record your notes during the lecture. Pick a note-taking format with which you are comfortable -- there are no hard-and-fast rules for this aspect of the Cornell system. However, you should not attempt to transcribe verbatim every word spoken by the instructor. It is usually not difficult to separate the essential material from the non-essential. For instance, if information is written on the blackboard, it is probably important enough to include in your notes. To

avoid missing information during the lecture, you should develop a system of abbreviations you understand, and you should write in telegraphic sentences (where you only include enough words to carry the essential meaning) or similar shorthand that is often used in cell phone text messages. As you take notes, realize that your emphasis should be on the key ideas, rather than the actual words used to convey those ideas.

5R笔记法，又叫做康乃笔记法，是用产生这种笔记法的大学校名命名的。这一方法几乎适用于一切讲授或阅读课，特别是对于听课笔记，5R笔记法应是最佳首选。这种方法是记与学，思考与运用相结合的有效方法。具体包括以下几个步骤：

1. Record 记录:

During the lecture, use the notetaking column to record the lecture using telegraphic sentences.

在听讲或阅读过程中，在主栏用简洁的语言记录下讲课内容，也就是有意义的论据、概念等讲课内容。

2. Questions 提问:

As soon after class as possible, formulate questions based on the notes in the left-hand column. Writing questions helps to clarify meanings, reveal relationships, establish continuity, and strengthen memory. Also, the writing of questions sets up a perfect stage for exam-studying later.

在课程结束后，根据课上的笔记，尽快将你的问题和理解写在笔记本左边那栏里。写下问题能够帮助你弄清楚含义。解释关系，建立一致性，以及加强记忆。而且，这样做还有助于考前复习。
