Our work consisted of three parts: a survey of current note-taking practices, an observational study in a classroom environment, and a semester long case study of students using electronic note-taking devices. All of these activities took place at a large 4-year university. We found that the...
However, it is important to note that note-taking is not a replacement for active learning. While taking notes can enhance our understanding, it should be used in conjunction with other learning activities such as discussion, reflection, and practice. In conclusion, note-taking is a powerful ski...

A composite theory of college science student note‐taking strategies was derived from a periodic series of five interviews with 23 students and with other variables, including original and final versions of notes analyzed during a semester‐long genetics course. This evolving composite theory was late...
