Explanation:
Effective note-making is an important practice to master at university. You have a lot of new knowledge and you need to develop reliable mechanisms for recording and retrieving it when necessary. But note-making is also a learning process in itself, helping you to process and understand the information you receive.
Good note-making...
enables you to avoid unintentional plagiarism
helps you to focus on what is important in what you are reading or hearing
helps you to understand and remember material, and make connections
helps you to structure the assignments you're researching
provides a personal record of what you've learnt (more useful than your lecturer's or friends' notes) and records your questions and ideas
sets you up for exam revision
There can be problems...
note-making can distract you from listening to lectures
note-making can put additional stress on those who do not write naturally
you can end up with so many notes that you have to spend twice the amount of time going through them again to find out the important points!
Developing more effective note-making practices will help you to avoid these problems, and make your studying less stressful and time-consuming.

Making note-making more effective
The two key principles are [1] to be meticulous and accurate, and [2] to be active rather than passive.
Being meticulous and accurate about recording sources and direct quotations is an important part of academic discipline, as well as helping to avoid accidental plagiarism. This means:
- always recording the necessary details for any source you use as soon as you start taking notes. Don't wait till you've finished reading - you may forget, or misplace the text.
- having a clear system so that you know which of your notes are [1] paraphrases of someone else's ideas [2] direct quotes [3] your own ideas.
Two things to watch out for...
...if you photocopy an article or chapter, make sure you include the page numbers as you will need them for referencing - write them in if they fall off the edge of the photocopy (at least the first page so you can count forward)
...if you are making notes from a website, keep a note of the URL (website address) and the date that you accessed it - you will need these for referencing
The most effective note-taking is active not passive. Active learning helps you to make meaning from what you learn: passive learning is allowing yourself to be an empty vessel into which knowledge is poured with no way of organising or making meaning from it. You are less likely to remember things you learn passively, which means more checking your notes while you're writing assignments, and more repeated effort when you come to revise.
Passive note-taking includes:
underlining words
cutting and pasting from online documents
trying to write everything you hear in a lecture
copying slides from the screen
copying lots of direct quotes rather than putting the ideas in your own words
writing notes on everything you read, because you're not sure what will turn out to be important
not evaluating or criticising the sources you use, but just accepting them as suitable evidence
Active note-taking means:
thinking about what you want to get out of your research before you start
looking for answers to any questions you may have about the topic
looking for connections within the topic you're studying, and to other topics on your course
writing notes mostly in your own words - your own explanation of what something says or means
recording direct quotes only when it's important to have the exact words that someone else has used (i.e. when how they say something is as significant as what they say)
