Note-taking is a common practice at colleges and universities where English is the language ofinstruction. Taking notes on lectures is an accepted part of the American college scene. It is quiteusual to see college students entering class carrying notebooks in which to take notes on materialpresented there. Taking notes while listening to a lecture benefits students in several ways. First，the notes provide a record of the information discussed by the professor in class， information thatthe professor believes is especially important for students to learn. Very often the professor pointsout or highlights certain information contained in an assignment which the students had to readoutside class. It is important to have this highlighted information available to study before anexamination. So， in many ways， your class notebook stores the information as a computer does. Itholds the information for you until you need it for study or review. This is often called the"recording and storing information" function of note-taking. It is one of the important reasons forlearning to take good notes on lectures.Another advantage of taking notes while listening in class is that it forces you to pay closerattention to the class lecture or discussion. If you listen passively to a professor who is talking onan don for an hour or so， your mind will often wander and your attention lessen. You are sitting inclass and listening， but that may be all you are doing； however， when you listen actively - that is，when you are h，'stening and taking notes on what you are listening to —— you have to pay morecareful and constant attention to what is being said. This is because you are trying to transformwhat you hear into an understandable， abbreviated written form. As a foreign student， you mayfind it very difficult to listen and write notes in English at the same time. It is difficult at first， butyou wiU learn how to do so with practice. You may be afraid you will forget what you are listeningto because you are listening and writing at the same time， but the studies of researchers such asAndrea Weiland and Steven Kingsbury and David Berliner， on the value of note-taking in learninglecture material have shown that learners remember information they have reproduced in somenote form much better than lecture information they have listened to but did not take down in noteform. So doing two things at the same time - listening and taking notes - is better than doing onething at a time. We do not say it is easier， we say it is better. ……
