Note-Taking Made Easy (Study Smart Series)

Have had some experience on note taking. Then I was asked to be recording secretary for an Army Association That I belong to. At 1st I was somewhat slow But as time went on my Note taking got 2-B Better. Yes I still need 2-Improve But as they all say Practice Practice Practice. In fact I purchased 1 for ea. grandchild.Thinking abt purchasing more to give out. book worth having & using.

Tells how to organize notes and decide what to write down

Excellent advice on how to read a nonfiction book and what notes to make about it, how to take them down fast and why not to use a tape recorder. Written in chatty style, it's not much of a chore to read. I recommend it enthusiastically since it's jam-packed with helpful ideas.
