NOTE TAKING FOR SCIENCE

Sciences, such as biology, physics, nursing, and radiology are so encompassing that the note taking procedure can be overwhelming.   In his book, Winning at Math, Dr. Paul Nolting suggests using the system below for study purposes.  In the first column, list your keywords.  In the second column, explain what the keywords mean, or give the rules for using them.  In the third column, give examples of using the keywords or examples of what they are..  Although he wrote his book for math study skills in particular, the information can be used for any subject.  Students from the nursing field suggested to the Teaching and Learning Center the below modifications to Dr.Nolting's math note-taking sheet.
