Notetaking basics

I write a lot about the specifics of notetaking. This may not be the ideal way to present notetaking to K12 educators looking for an overview to guide their classroom presentation of notetaking skills to students. I encountered a post authored by Jennifer Gonzales that provides an overview that probably communicates in a more efficient fashion.

Among the specific topics considered is the offering of instructor notes to scaffold learner notetaking and strategies for collaborative notetaking (the sharing of notes between students). Instructor notes and collaborative notetaking are reasonable ways to develop student skills through modeling and through comparison with the content peers record. Since both strategies in my experience are unusual, the article is worth a read.
