What matters is not how to do it, but the deep principle behind it. Try to discuss one or two things coldly, so that we don't have to stick to the form of Cornell's notes, and then use them flexibly.
Don't talk. (emm) Actually, I've had enough verbosity. )
The page of Cornell's notes is like this: just draw two lines in the notebook. Don't look at the picture first, and look at it with the following.
..... But such an ugly picture is not worth stealing. Watermarking is for fun. Do me a favor and smile.
There are five steps.

Record (record)
When listening to a class or reading a book, take notes in the main column (upper right side) of the notebook page, try to be short and make good use of symbols and abbreviations. Moreover, try to be clear at a glance: you can use 1234 to list points.
Cornell note-taking also suggests recording the date, theme, content theme, etc. at the top of the page. It can make the notes systematic and easy to find.
This piece, the most important thing should be: keep your notes as simple as possible, don't think of yourself as a typist, and keep copying ppt or what the teacher said.
Listening/reading is not a process of unilateral indoctrination, but a process of in-depth understanding and interaction.

Reduce (decrease)
On the left is the sidebar, and on the right is a brief summary of notes after class or reading.
You can use keywords, key sentences, etc. , can be used as an effective trigger point for knowledge points and discussion sentences on the right, that is, as a clue to memory.
This is a process of timely memory and processing, which is equivalent to the first memory. "Concise and to the point" has actually been summarized and dealt with in its own language.
No matter what kind of learning method, no matter what kind of "technique" (specific operation method), the fundamental "Tao" (the most fundamental truth) used is the same.
Jane avenue. If you want to remember and understand, the most important thing is to carry out active fine processing by yourself.
Moreover, this is a thin reading process, omitting the details you remember in class.
There is a passage in China:
There is a process of "from coarse to fine". We should chew, digest, organize and sort out the knowledge we have learned, scrutinize it repeatedly, integrate it, refine the key issues, see the ins and outs clearly and grasp the main points.
After such digestion, things are easy to remember and easy to use.

Recite (recite)
When reciting, use the keyword clues in the sidebar to cover the right side, and try to actively recall and describe the notes on the right side.
Remember: compared with repetition, it is more efficient to learn and remember by testing.
Reviewing notes should not be a passive and mechanical process of repeating reading and memorizing notes. This method is inefficient.
Testing is checking, actively recalling the knowledge points in memory and giving yourself positive feedback or negative feedback.
And this step "back" perfectly realizes the purpose of testing and memorizing according to a small number of prompts. After reading the cold words "Remember less but don't remember more" and "Remember more from less", you will understand the mystery. How to remember more than a dozen specialized courses and get high marks in 15 days?
Of course, it is easier to read notes repeatedly, but you might as well follow the ultimate goal directly: how do you need to recall knowledge points during the exam and how do you need to use them. When studying, we should follow this train of thought to study.
The exam is not reading, but asking questions. Use the thinking during the exam to decide how to read and how to study.
Just like writing an article, reading and writing are different paths. If you want to write an article, the more efficient way is to determine a topic, then find an argument, or even start writing, adding arguments while writing. Instead of finding a bunch of arguments to put aside, it is better to read books before the exam and instill knowledge points into your mind without screening, which is very inefficient.

Thinking (reflection)
Record your extended thoughts on the content of this page at the bottom of the page: what facts, phenomena and theories are related to? Where can it be used?
Contrary to the above "from thick to thin", this is a "from thin to thick" process.
This piece is especially important for people who want to have their own independent thinking ability, or who want to take postgraduate exams (especially humanities and social sciences).
Have your own ideas, opinions and experiences, even if they are not so mature, naive and illogical, they should be expressed in words.
Record the instant "inspiration" and then there is room for improvement.
Yes, the article is not written, but changed.

Review (review)
Review. There is nothing to say. Look at the clues in the side column and review actively, then look at the main column. You can also think, add or delete your own ideas at any time.
